Only thing I've driven (or rode on) that has a clutch is our OLD Honda riding lawnmower.
I can't remember the folks' cars ever stalling in my lifetime either...
About the most interesting failure work-around I remember is my Dad driving his 80's Buick Park Ave. backwards 1.5 blocks from home to the repair shop after having it towed home from Oak Park to Lombard Il when all the drive gears in the automatic transmission failed....And why did they fail? Oh yeah, because in all the years that he had that car he never changed the transmission fluid....Sure shows the kinda long line of car 'experts' I come from.
I'm planning to break the cycle (once I have some money) by getting a 40's or 50's beater and making it nice again with my own two hands.
