Quote:Best of luck, and my advice to you is this: When parking, put it in neutral and apply the parking brake, then let off the other brake and put it in park. Makes it so you don't have to pull on the shifter so hard to pull out when you park on a hill .
Don't know if this was said to me or not, but anyway.
My driveway is at a steep incline and has a bend in the middle. The day I could navigate down that driveway backwards was the same day I went to get my driver's license. Rite of passage. So I have the whole brake thing under control. ;)
My parents want me good and insured before I take my new car out for a test drive. Then I'll apply the accessories: fuzzy dice, cap tassel, air freshener, steering wheel cover, HU license plate frame, sunshield CD case. Too bad my friends don't live here anymore. I would've taken them all out for a drive. :(
