    Car won’t start? Push it down a hill, avoid running over my foot, and climb in before it pulls away from you.

    This is how I got to nursery school on at least one occasion I can remember.

    I love manual transmission, and miss it badly. It was awesome getting out of both mud and snow. Plus, I felt like I was actually driving the car, not guiding it.

      Ahhh we had a different method - push it until you get to a decending road (don’t know the right term in english lol) put in 2nd gear and start rolling while trying to start like maniac - worked every time lol
