    When I got my auto you told me I was neutered.

    Here is a jar to put your balls in.

    Is that a 2 meter rig I see up on the dash?

    How is the 579 besides the transmission? Really thinking of a 389 for my next truck but between the wheelbase, weight, turning radius, and mpg it's so hard not to consider an aero.

    However with behind door exhausts and no side fairings its probably not much better mpg wise. Half or so mpg.

    If that’s what that is, it isn’t mine. That’s the company radio.

    I know the feeling, I just got a new ride a couple weeks ago too. Also has an automatic. You can take my shifter away from me but you will never take my years of experience away from me. Therefore, I will never be a steering wheel holder no matter what they say. ;)
