That just seems goofy to me? Why would you start with a "high end" car like a Cadillac and strip off the "creature comforts"? You could have had a cheaper car in the first place where the "standard" transmission was a three speed manual.
Besides, Amish folks are not allowed to own a car anyway....much less one that could have been considered a "status symbol".....I call "Urban Legend" on this one.
