Well I left my spare keys in the clear. I know I'm probably just acting like a dumbass, but for some reason that **** really pisses me off.

Man, I can't wait till I can get my dad behind the wheel of my car. We'll have a blast! I can't remember him driving a CAR, EVER! Only trucks and vans.



Mom can't drive, but even when she could she wasn't too good at it. Tended to hit things and drive off the road a LITTLE too often.

My mom shifted at 8000 when she first drove my TII.



"What's that buzzing noise?"



"SHIFT!!!"

Ask yourself this question: Could you afford the FD if you didn't live at home? Get a grip, its a car.

I can just see it now on tonights news on msnbc: Boy goes crazy after mom drives car, kills entire family in a mad shootout. Attornies claim the movie matrix 2 inspired his rage. He only prefers to be called by the named Neil.

To paraphrase nocab's sig, "It's just a car. You act like she killed your mom."



Okay, so I'm probably the only one who finds that amusing.

heck, I'd let lots of people drive my car, assuming I know they can handle a stick. I'd be happy to see it damaged, knowing that they would have to pay for it, and I would be able to get new parts, or rebuild my motor! yay!



and honestly, I don't think anyone would abuse it as much as i do.

my wife always shifts at like 3.5k-4k, it annoys me. I like the buzzer.
