I figured you must have been from over here... only place in the states I have heard anybody call a manual a "straight drive" drives my dad nuts... "why a straight drive, it's the automatic that has a straight shifter..."
I learned in South Dakota in the early 80's driving an 67 dodge pickup, (and I still have that monster) on the farm... hard to buck with foot floored and rear tires spinning in the dirt.
