Florida man can't drive car he tried to steal from Uber driver at knifepoint

8. I'm afraid this will be my last one

partly as a concession to age (I'm 67) and partly because they're getting hard to find and my current vehicle is 11 years old - though I do plan to keep it a couple more years.

I pulled into a gas station today & asked for some help checking my tire pressure (don't know why, I have never mastered doing that myself) as the warning light was on. The young mechanic who helped me noticed looked in the car to check what the pressure should be the he gasped "It's a manual! That is cool!" and looked at me with great admiration. My niece's husband told me when he met me he knew I was the cool aunt when he found out I drove a stick....It's the last thing this old girl can do to impress young men.
