And it often makes you look like you canīt operate a stick shift just when you least need it!  |
That's mine in a nutshell.
Drove it 60 miles to the installer to pull the trans for a fourth time. Got there, he jumps in the car and slips the trans smoothly into reverse. Makes me look like an idiot. Over and over he slips it in and out of reverse without a sign of a grind. I looked at him and said f--k it! I'll bring it back when something breaks!
