just wondering what the common thing to do is in a standard vehicle.
do you put it in first gear, turn engine off, then let clutch out + ebrake.
or do you put it in neutral, e brake on, then engine off?
had someone drive my car and leave it in first when they turned it off... I usually hop in, press clutch, start car, and release clutch quickly to let it idle.. normally its in neutral so thats fine, but that time I didnt notice he had it in first, so when I started and let the clutch out quick the car jumped and stalled.. not good.
