Default Manual Cars

Hi Guys
I was reading recently that there will be few Manual Cars made because car makers saying " Nobody want's a manual car any more".

I got my driver's Licence just before i turned 18 years old and i got it in my sisters automatic car.
I returned home that afternoon and my older brother said " you should also learn how to drive a manual car" and he had a manual Company car and he taught me to drive a manual car.

I like manual cars and have had a few, you don't have to use the brakes so much for a start with a manual gearbox.
One of my mates daughters was telling me "she can only drive a automatic and she has no idea how to drive a manual'.

I said to her "what happens if one of your friends need to go to Hospital and they have a manual car'?

I told her " if i was you i would ask your father to teach you to drive a manual car"!
