[QUOTE="roger dodger, post: 1434270, member: 18173"] When I was younger ... my 2nd car was a 1969 Chevy Chevelle (Wagon) with a 3 (speed) on the tree. I even taught my mom how to drive a stick with it. Now my Buick has a 4speed auto and my Chrysler has a 6 speed auto. I prefer the steadier, constant power of the 4 speed. My Connie (first ST) had 6 speeds and needed them... to reduce rpms and slow the buzz. But it took lots of shifts up and down to get across town in traffic. I [B]love [/B]my 5 speed FJR for fewer shifts than the Connie, more low end grunt like the Chevelle, and endless days of smooth running across states (of mind). [/QUOTE]
