I seriously doubt it would be your first!

Doubt it all you want but I have the stack of slips to back it up. However, I seriously doubt you're going to make up the 4 mph between the manual and auto.

Just wanted to see if you were still "in" this thread!

I'm sure you threw away all those sub-100mph slips anyway...

Only one I can't find was for my first pass ever, when I was 17. Was something like a 15.5 at about 100 mph. All the others are sitting in my closet.

What the "I" means

The "I" on the prndl is for putting the transmission into a gear that deactivates the traction control {if so equipped} so if you live in the snow states and you get stuck you can "rock" the car out of the snow if needed.

Got mine with the 5sp, manual, like to stir the pot myself. Have noticed that the rpms surge up about 500 between shifts and when I spoke with service they said that thay were supposed to do that "it helps with the smog control" Just annoys the crap out of me. I want to find out how to stop it, it wastes gas and can make the clutch wear faster. Also sounds like you can't drive stick. Has anyone else with a manual noticed this ?
