Did anyone see the movie Little Miss Sunshine?

They should have been doing this, but instead they screwed around pushing the bus until they could get it into 3rd. Not really well thought out technically, but it did make for a pretty funny movie.

A car is certainly drivable without a clutch. The other day my friend's clutch cable broke at the top of a steep hill near my house. This was in his 82 245T that I used to own. We started it in gear, got it moving, popped it into neutral and coasted to a parking spot by my driveway. A quick trip to FCP and a minor repair to the firewall got the car back on the road about an hour later.
