Playing with your stick...
Just wondering...how often do you do you use the SS? I have noticed that i don't use mine that often. maybe once a week when i feel like fuckin' around. What about you?
Do you think the amount of use is connected to the tranny failure problem?

Agreed!!! Getting that 10th condom on is a real problem too. Anyway, I prefer to compare the SS to mental masturbation. You only THINK you're actually shifting because you're just telling the car electonically to change gears. Real men actually shift their own gears. Sorry guys.

My car NEVER gets driven auto and it seems that the ppl that do have problems, are the ones who don't use SS.
