If you got the bucks Renntech will turn an SRT-6 into a manual.... for the difference in price I would rather have them modify a limited and it would be a sleeper...

Man, you really know how to make friends and influence people. One word of advice... I wouldn't stand next to any of the "Skyline Cross-Up" Survivors and say what you just pounded out on your keyboard!!!

Actually its nice to drive and not have to shift all the time. Guess ive paid my manual dues with previous cars and its nice to have a car shift itself.

I went for the manual , but I find that I don't use 4th or 5th very often. Tend to use 3rd to accelerate then stick it straight into 6th when it redlines. Does anyone know if not using 4th and 5th will cause me any problems?

(1. You have to turn the key all the way off to turn it on again - it is to prevent you from trying to start it when the car is already on )
I don't know how to use the quote yet.

The dealer gave me the car with it running so I didn't have to start it until I stalled it. I learned that "under fire". Thanks, I didn't know the reason.

Whoa there Slick... I really should ignore you but I canft stop laughing!!!

You're really starting to take this way too personal!!! I'm very sorry "5 Crossfirefs" and the good people that own them getting together for a fun day of camaraderie, doesn't meet your standards. I truly am. You probably wouldnft have much fun running with your tail up, falling into line for pictures and just having a good time. It's a "Hook-Up" thing, you wouldn't understand. So I guess itfs better you decided just to stay home trolling on internet forums.

Before I close, could you please explain exactly how Mesa come up in this conversation? Is it sorta like a milder version of dissing someonefs momma???

Have a great life but first untwist your knotted panties.

Actually Mesa Arizona is a great place to live. I was there in 86 and loved the weather. Getting tired of the storms here in Texas. Our drought season is around the corner and I can't wait. I just wish the humidity was less than half of what it usually is. Oh well.
