see what you do is go to a dealer with no car in mind that you mentioned test drive the first like 5 you see that kicks you in the face and your brains says" Holy shit open up that door and sit in there" and decide on those should work right?

the geekz0r (11:04:16 PM): so 2nd pulls like 1st in the 5speed, 3rd is like 2nd, etc.
PortugeeTex (11:04:26 PM): so whats 1st like then?
the geekz0r (11:04:49 PM): 1st is like hitting a cheeta in the ass with a tazer
PortugeeTex (11:04:53 PM): lmfao
