My New Car

[Muck]

I got an automatic as a courtesy car once. For the first few minutes they only way I could drive it was to mime the clutch when breaking etc. Damn muscle memory.

I also thought I could use one foot for each peddle... turns out my left legs is so used to dropping a clutch that when I hit the break I almost went through the windscreen.

Mine's a manual transmission. I took the automatic for a test drive, and almost put my left foot through the floorboard 3 or 4 times.

Sweet car Sean. Insurance must be a bitch though. I know what NJ insurance is like even with a perfect driving record. It isn't pretty.

$1200/year, full coverage.

That's not bad at all for NJ. Must be discounted because of your age then... .

Congrades again on the car. Enjoy it. Great idea getting the stick and not the automatic. Cable or hydraulic clutch? I hope hydro...cause with traffic in AC your leg might get tired holding down the clutch in traffic..
