i wish my van was a manual all the time

these six years ive had it.... ive gotten sick of autmatics.

I remember feeling the opposite when i got it. I was sick of manuals.

I see it all now from an older mans perspective. Id much rather have mpg and performance. and added reliability.

the 4x4 I dont know I mean every once in a while that would be nice.

however dragging all that crap around costs hundreds of dollars a year. at least.

for that just rent one when you get the urge or need.

do you live on the end of a rural road or something?
