I think most people out side of the find it amazing that a lot of Americans cant drive a manual at all and it appears a lot of Americans fear the very thought of driving them

Most do not even know manual tranny's exist. Sad when you go in for a state vehicle inspection and have to tell the service writer that you vehicle is a standard trans and see the "oh F*ck look" When I picked up from Dodge my new Ram 5500 chassis the guy that drove standards was off  for the day, had to got get it in the shop myself. 5 salesmen, 9 techs and 2 service writers and ZERO could drive a standard!

So how would a mechanic road test a manual transmission if they can't drive it ???

Reminded me of something I've been harping about for years,when is a truck not a truck? When it is a pickup! In many of the articles in the newspaper involving an accident where someone in a pickup is at fault (drunk driving,speeding etc) the article reads "truck accident, charges pending" when the perpetrator was driving a pickup! I'm thinking the average motorist pictures a thundering eighteen wheeler! My favorite is the Suburu ad "a truck failed to stop, and that's why we drive a Suburu!" The "truck" is not pictured, I can only assume that the Suburu protected its owner from the truck with its automatic emergency braking!

It doesn't cost anything to pay attention.

Yup, I have one. I would have worn it at Macungie but I forgot it. I wore a B model shirt one day and a BMT shirt the next day.
