Banned in the best way. FUCK ANY ANTI CLUTCHERS! GEARHEDS FOR LIFE BABYYYYYY
I never deny my love of clutches.
Being an 'automatic' was the biggest thing I had to get over with my Mercedes. That left pedal is MAGIC! The ability to be in TOTAL CONTROL of the beast of a machine. Also, it's not convertible... another minus. BUT it has twice the power of the Fiat it repalced, AND can handle easily as well... and a bunch of times the price, but whatever. I thought I could afford it at the time. And I did. But yeah.
Oops. Digression continues...
Hahaha. You are a hoot.
I have a Mercedes convertible that is currently a yard ornament. I think I'm gonna turn it into a buggy but yeah it was an auto and I am definitely a manual person. I miss my old MGs. They ran like shit and went 80 tops but I could tear them down to the ground and put them back together in a day and they were a true pleasure to drive. We don't make fun cars anymore. We make technological marvels or efficient economy passenger vehicles or comfortable hauling machines, but we don't make fun.
Oh man.
I used to "borrow" my dad's '64 Triumph Spitfire from time to time as a teenager. He wasn't using it! And I was maintaining the fuck out if it because it was AWESOME! I even got a rollover bar for it, just to placate mom. I'm sure that is still somewhere in their disaster of a garage... where the Triumph SHOULD HAVE BEEN kept. Now it's a rust nightmare. My '59 Hillman Minx parked next to it is not much better, to be fair... but it's just a Hillman; not an epic sports car. Oh well, whatever. I moved away and stayed away, so I guess it's kind of my fault in that regard.
The missus keeps reminding me that I NEED TO stay in control of the Ford Model A my grandfather gave me... but it's still in what had been his garage, so at lest there's that. But that is a different kind of fun. And I have a boat to take care of right now. And that CLUTCH album just ended. Now I think i have to hear what Electric Six has been up to!
