Default Little Thingies-I Can't Resist

I am not a performance person so this is the Wife and I on a sunny Sunday afternoon out for a drive in my 1979. I do shift manually from time-to-time, particularly with the TransGo Kit.

:) :steering:

Let's drop by the beer store and get a case of 12 before we go home.

:cuss :rolleyes:
