Victorys Defeats and Tall Tails

My browser was e-mailing me nasty grams about the length of the last Victorys & Defeats

Kapthowdy: no offence taken on your last post, that's the reason I rarely let my 6'4" husband drive my truck, the man really doesn't know how to shift right!!! Or he is so used to driving his F350 that he forgets how to drive mine

comes from f1 racing, porche & ferrari have them, mine is a lexus, but chrysler has this "autostick" feature on some of there cars, it's a neat idea, takes some of the hum-drum out of the ride when you can switch over and play on the twisties when you find them.

thats got to be like the teacher scratching her nails on the chalkboard, listening to someone shifting your truck improperly. one of the best features on our car is the optional paddle shifters on the steering wheel, automatic for her, and 4sp manual for me, i love to use engine compression to slow down. if they would incorp this into trucks, i think we would have less truck objections from our spouse .
