I was flipping through some music videos tonight on YouTube and was watching Darius Rucker's "Wagon Wheel" and low and behold there were the Duck Dynasty boys in the video. A couple of them were driving some vintage pickups and I saw them manually shift two of the trucks with the "3-on-the-tree" shift configuration. I got to wondering how many people have actually ever driven a standard shift vehicle with the manual shifter on the steering column. About 25% of the vehicles that I've owned have been manual transmissions and one was even the good old steering column manual shifter. So just curious: 1. How many have experienced the "3-on-the-tree" shifter? 2. How many still struggle with a manual transmission? One would think that with questions like theses, that someone has WAY TOO MUCH TIME on their hands, but surprisingly, my free time of late is on an extreme premium! TBow
