    A real driver is so fast they jump out and throw chalks under the tires before it stops.

    Are you serious? We're supposed to push those buttons in? Maybe that will help my fuel mileage!:biggrin_25526:

    Extend arm, reach out with my hand, push with my thumb and bend at the elbow.

    I just pull on that little bar on the right side of the steering column. You know, the one that says "not for parking". Works like a champ for doing truck stop burnouts too so you can impress the swift drivers with their awesome aero cabs :)
     
    Brickwall, Mr Ed and Nycmex77 Thank this.
