Our good friend Joel Feder from the Motor Authority is just like us… He loves rowing his own gears and most true automotive enthusiasts (Automotive Addicts) wouldn’t have it any other way. We all know the real-life crises we face with manual transmissions going the way of the Dinosaurs being replaced by CVTs, 8-plus-gear automatics and dual-clutch units. It is refreshing to know that we are not alone in this fight to keep the manual transmission alive.
In a nice mockery to those “give” videos you may see telecasted all over the TV from time to time, Joel takes it upon himself to Give A Shift. That’s right, we all need to Give A Shift. If you don’t know what I am talking about, check out the video below. If you already get it, still, watch the video below. Enjoy!
