Now - everyone tell me I made a Bad Choice.....

It is a synthetic, not all that expensive, and a 'name brand.'

Now if the weather here in Spokane will abate for a while, I will
endeavor to change my gear oil.

PS - when I bought this '93 Metro, someone had put a turned metal
gearshift knob on the shift lever. 'Bout froze my hand to it when it
got down to 6 °F !!!

So I went to a crafts store and bought a 4 inch wood ball, waxed it,
drilled it out and hotmelt glued it to the shift lever.

Works Fantastic! Fits my hand nicely, isn't as cold as a
witch's boob on Halloween, and looks 'neat!' Tubular! Knarlie!
Hey, Man! Bitchin'! .....shows how old I am!

Good choice. I laugh at the speed racers who buy the speed stuff and own an econo-box. Even worse add all of the wings and ground effects that actually create drag and reduce the terminal speed of the car. Blumentopft!

Fer shizzle my nizzle.
