Agreed. Or get a super, super cheap rental for a few hours and beat the crap out of it.

Nah, I don't think he was serious.

But I do agree with the rental car idea. Just buy the insurance for the car then have fun!

Snoozie · 07-03-2006, 04:25 PM

I'm pretty sure you can't rent a car in stick.

I got it all down. Only stalled one time completely. Other times i just let out the clutch a lil fast, and didnt give nuff gas, so the car was bucking a lil

~Brian~ · 07-03-2006, 05:22 PM

Oh, thats not so bad then.

Snoozie · 07-03-2006, 05:25 PM

All i can say is that is some trust right there. Im not bad at driving stick I just don't do it everyday. I have been with my boyfriend for 5 years and i have only driven his rex once since he got it in August and that was only a week ago.

jspek · 07-03-2006, 05:28 PM
