Today was a beautiful day and my grandkids were visiting and wanted to go for a drive in grandpa's TR6. They (twins) are 11 years old.
During the ride with my granddaughter, she asks me "why are your keys hanging in your car?"
Her mom's car has a wireless fob and my son's EV car uses his iPhone.
I had to laugh since my granddaughter has never seen "keys" start a car. Makes me feel old!👴

Did she ask about the extra pedal and that thing you keep moving with your right hand? You know, the anti theft device…

She didn’t but my grandson did. I tried explaining what a manual transmission was. He listened then said “oh like changing the gears on my bike”.
At that point I knew he was getting it.

Hook set. Now you need to teach him how to drive a cool clutch car, in a few years…
