    FoJust finished orientation today...had to come home quick to see doc to get a note about
    My meds, other then that all looks good...im a student, fresh outta school...
    I just love to drive..i been through extensive training and im comfortable shifting...
    It just how i feel is really driving....keeps me alert as well..i truly do not want an auto truck...

    Manual tranny? I just read the story about the automatic cars(driverless)......now they have manual trannys? Back in the day, all trannys were automatic!!!! You knew to stay away from them, and now drivers actually want em??? I think I seen a tranny the other day in Norfolk, I don't know if it was manual though......

    Justy, your just out of school. Focus on being a good driver. Once you upgrade.... you'll have plenty of time for Manuel the tranny.
