      I can drive a car or truck with a manual transmission, but it’d be an adventure. (I once drove a truck with two “sticks” from Reno to Sacramento. Shakily.)

      Does a motorcycle count? (That is, a manual/pedal shifting of gears, but no actual “stick”.)

      I guess a tiller is a kind of “stick”. Only the one ‘gear’, though. Great fun, but trickier than it looks.

      Or do you mean an aeronautical contraption? That kind of “stick”, I’d fear only ‘driving’ once. But I’d try it before I’d try, say, prayer.

      …or do you mean flying on a stick?

      No, but I was once forced to learn how to get from a highway-adjacent gas station to said highway an hour outside New Orleans when the driver was about to pass out from exhaustion.

      I can drive stick, but I can’t drive automatic.

      heck, I learned on a stick. burned out the clutch while driving through a cemetery. my grandpa, who was teaching me, thought the smell was them cremating bodies..
