I regret getting the stick shift, but my wife, who chose and ordered it, wanted it that way. For just pure long-term enjoyment, the auto is the way to go, in my opinion.

Another consideration can be the finance status of the car. If you're upside down on it, the insurance company will go to great lengths to keep you in it so you don't have to put out a slug of money to the finance company.

I wonder if there will be any surge in activity on the V6 forum when the EcoTec guys start having turbo failures...

Unless it makes the exhaust smell like racing gas or nitromethane, not interested.

As a trucker with several million miles of safe driving, I have said for years that when many of these drivers have an accident and are taken away in the ambulance unconscious, they are as aware as they were before the accident. And you would not believe what I see people doing in their cars as...

Someone in the Austin area said they had one they wanted to give away, and I replied, but I never heard back. Anyone have one in the DFW-Waco-Temple-Austin area?

It you can show the truck was losingpart of its load, and the rock wasn't road debris, the trucking company is responsible.

No pics allowed in the shop area, unfortunately.

Our national T bucket club is currently having our Nationals in Indianapolis. Yesterday, our group cruise was to Chip Ganassi Racing. Fantastic cars, including the actual GT that won at LeMans. Yeah, it llooks like it was driven hard for 24 hours at high speed. They are going to remove all the...

It is Mac Haik Desoto, TX. This is a southern suburb of Dallas. I know several of them are 50th anniversary models.

For the life of me, I don't know why those links didn't post photos.

I was at the dealer where I bought my Mustang (trying to locate a missing check) when I noticed a number of 2015's on the front porch. I talked to my salesman (who is now the sales manager) and asked him what the deal was. He said these cars just haven't moved, and they're anxious...

Everything is fixable, for enough money. The definition of (totalled) is a higher cost to repair than to replace. You're looking at big bucks there.

Ok, I'm here, where is everyone else?

I think I'm going to make it. Just washed the Mustang. Watch for a bright yellow V6 with a temp tag.

I won't know until Friday afternoon if I can make it. I'm half expecting a run to Laredo, but you never know. So the plan is you go to Cars and Coffee, and then try to leave together. When does Cars and Coffee start, and where?

Because that doesn't solve the problem for everyone, such as my wife.

The shifting will become mostly automatic. Your brain sets aside a little corner of memory, and fills it with what you need to know. It's like riding a bike; if you have to think about what you're doing, you probably won't do it right. My wife is a truck driver/instructor and teaches people...

There is a parking lot across the street from Wilhoite's in both directions. And they have a very good buffet. Check it out and maybe use it in the future.

If I recall correctly, it was the little add-on unit that tested so well, wasn't it? Not an actual wrench? http://www.harborfreight.com/12-in-drive-digital-torque-adapter-68283.html Of course, since the OP in this thread is in Australia, it may be a moot point. And the magazine test...
