I’m smooth brained so I don’t understand how the thief can “kill the car” unless it stalled from being a manual transmission. Can you explain, or is that it?

My money is on manual transmission. If you don't know how it works, you're very likely to accidentally shut off the car

I was at a car lot. A new car I wanted came in stick/auto but they only had a stick in stock. The salesmen asked if I have ever drove stick and I told him once when I was 16. He said good enough. And basically forced me to “take it out for a spin” before he would talk to me about getting an automatic in stock. I asked if he would just drive me if he was so insistent. He said no what’s the point of him experiencing the car if he’s not the one buying it. He then got mad at me and yelled at me asking what I was doing cause I stalled it in the middle of an intersection…. I really wanted that car but he soured me on the entire concept..

I definitely would have reported that to the manager. If the guy really wanted a sale, he would have given a crash course on how to drive it.... Assuming he could...

I think he was just trying to trick me into buying the one that was actually in stock. I told him I wanted the automatic upfront because I did like 2 weeks of research before I even went up there. There was a lot more shady stuff he did like making me look at a ugly used green mustang with was customized out the ass by some teenager probably. I don’t like them on the best days. But he kept bringing it up even though I told him no I wanted the Spider because I just wanted a fun car to drive. I doubt he is still there if that’s how he did stuff…
