Default New guy in AZ. First Mustang, First Manual, First car.

Well....

I bought a 2011 GT Mustang tonight with the 6 speed. I guess what makes this interesting is it's my first ever car (only ever had Trucks and SUVs before) Also it's a manual.... and I don't know how to drive stick

I've been wanting a car to compliment my current DD 2006 Jeep Wrangler LJ and decided to look at Mustangs this one fit the bill with a great price so I figured I'm only young once, might as well have fun.

Anyway I'm looking forward to getting the hang of driving stick, and looking forward to having some fun.

Welcome to the forum, congrats on your Mustang, looks sharp. And on your choice to go manual, good call.
