            You have an awesome point.

            :::sells car and buys a pruis:::

            In all seriousnes, I'm more concerned about tha 5% than the 95%, but thats just me.

                    LIFE'S JOURNEY IS NOT TO ARRIVE AT THE GRAVE IN A WELL PRESERVED BODY, BUT RATHER TO SKID IN SIDEWAYS, TOTALLY WORN OUT, SHOUTING ' HOLY SHIT.....WHAT A RIDE'

                        I would drive it more, and I will drive it eventually, I just have to figure out whats wrong. I think I may have figured out whats wrong with it (crosses fingers) but i've been sick so I havn't touched it. I might have stretched the cable trying to get it on the transmission, that would account for it not quite going into gear like it should. Also, it might be the flywheel, or a dent thats in the dust cover. I'll find out tomarow.

                            😄

                            I get 20 in the exploder on the interstate but its comfy as hell and I can fit 5 people.

                            Hell, the mustang even would pull 25 doin 75mph on the way home and 27 if I did the speed limit
