    Being as the man that's pushing 60, with mended broken ankle, fractured hip, and still has a torn ACL in the left leg, I can't say I'm not willing to give an auto a try.

    I drove that 11 yard 359 around for several years with that manual.

    When I got one with auto, I wasn't complaining.

    Prior to electronics you saw a blue fog of smoke behind indicating your 63 Chevy had blown the external diaphragm or lost the vac line to it and you had a fogging machine on steroids...

    Snapped the kingpin off. At least we know the trailer was properly coupled.

    Prior experiences with skidders or late model combines. Have accelerants; will travel to site alone, but require secluded housing for the following week.
    To let the heat die down a little...

    There's none on III, and II it's turned off. Casper didn't have it. Nor did the original Blackie.
