    Alright doll-face, c'mon and bore me!
    I'm trying to time it so that, when that happens, my knees will have already given out.

    Next step is electric so you all are out of luck. Get used to it it's not far off. Embrace the future.

    Ha!

    I actually have a pre-order on the cybertruck, as ugly as it is. I will very much miss the visceral involvement of driving, I will like the acceleration however! One guy described electrics as the lack of character and drama, and I agree even if I did like test driving a tesla.

    Don't do that to me! I was unable to get the LED headlights and I'm still quite bitter over it...

    Ford did an electric Mustang with a manual transmission so not all hope is lost.

    Wow really? I had no clue. How would the electric motor work with the manual though, hmmm.

    That sounds kind of promising for the 4th gen.

    Not necessarily better, just different than 95% of the population.

    I'll reserve judgement until you elaborate on your oil change regiment.

    It is actually pretty cool as it said you can just stick it in 3rd gear and drive it as if it were an automatic or you could choose to use the clutch and gearbox if you want to have fun.

    I dump in 10 quarts and wait for the real oil light. The red one with the clicking. That when I know to put more in. What is this filter you guys keep talking about?
