Ask a millennial!Emergency brake, Clutch pedal, Brake pedal and gas pedal. What's so confusing about that?
I can hear heads exploding.
My high school buddy bought a 3 on the tree Bronco, I had to teach him how to drive it.

Model T for the win! No gas pedal, and the brake is on the wrong side
my first thought. i wish they would put the damn high beam switch back on the floor.Where's the push button starter or the high beam switch?
Farmall Cub for me.This is what I learned to drive on. And my 15 yo daughter thinks a manual car as a first car is to hard to learn.

They are interesting to drive, that's for sureTaught my wife to drive a T back when I was into them.
whew.
As you can see from the diagram when you push the brake it tightens the linings on a drum in the trans, same as the low pedal and reverse. In a panic stop you step on all three. Push all the way down on the left pedal for low, release and you're in high. Same pedal has to be half way down for neutral then push on the center pedal for reverse. Throttle is on the right side of the steering column and left side is spark advance. There were are no real brakes on the rear axle, just a parking brakes. Nothing on the front axle.
I think by 1925, give or take, half of the cars in America were model T's. In 1923 alone Henry (we're on a first name basis) sold over 2 million of them.
The only problem with that is we would have to take them apart every so often to clean out any dirt and road salt debris to keep them operating.my first thought. i wish they would put the damn high beam switch back on the floor.
