I think you drastically underestimate the number of gearheads in the States. Makes sense, given we have incredibly limited public transport. Currently have 3 manuals in my driveway.
Of course, it a joke based on the fact that manual gearbox is, even to this day, the standard in Europe. I would be very surprise to meet someone with a driver license who can’t drive manual. It seems in the USA manual driving is a hobby for car enthusiast. But was do I know? I have never step foot on the new continent.
