Dennis........grew up with 1941 6-cyl Plymouth and 3-onnna-tree. Dad finally traded it in on a DeSoto with weird 4-speed Tip-toe-matic. Start in 1st, then shift to 3rd and WAIT fer hydraulic shift to 4th. Don't even try to wait fer shift into 2nd. Then my 1st car was '52 Ford-V8 3-speed + OD. Next was 1956 Dodge coupe with semi-hemi V-8 3-speed plus OD. Next was Plymouth Barracuda with GLASS back and 4-speed V-8; Finally a 1969 BMW 4-speed I took delivery at the factory in Munich, Ger. It now has 387K mi and 1-eng overhaul. Then a 6-cyl BMW Bavaria with 4-speed. 1st pick'em-up was Ford 3/4-T auto to haul an Alaskan uppsie-downsie camper. Then came 3 Volkswagen Rabbit pick'em-ups to commute 60-miles to Boeing in Seattle. Then alla sudden, my wife wants a NEW Eddie Bauer Ford SUV to commute to Seattle fer her DR's degree. (I think there is sumptin' in the upholstery glue that warps their thinking) Ennyhow, I summhow convinced her a Subaru AWD auto at 22mpg was better commuter than the 10mpg Ford SUV. (she divorced me after 32-yrs) I now drive a 1994 Dodge Cummins Diesel 3/4T with auto. I tried a 2002 Dodge Cummins with 6-speed tranny but didn't like it 'cuz I wouldda had to buy the 4-wheel drive virgin. My attitude about 4WD is it just gittscha stuck deeper in the woods. I just made a 300+ mile trip to Portland, Ore and got 22+mpg at 80mph!!! Had to do 80 to keep outta the way of them 18-wheelers. Whooee, hot-doggies thems FLYING.......Diesel Dell
