I was thinking we'd meet in Moses Lake so I can get you the other stuff too. Just a thought.
If I’m making a trip that way, then yeah, but until then no extra trips for me.
I didn’t pull the Luna. I camped. Carried everything either in the Jeep or on the cargo carrier. I got 13mpg. To pull the Luna I need to do more work and spend more $$$.
My hand throttle broke just before Rocker Knocker. Can’t figure out how. It was a clean break 3” before it attaches to the throttle. No fraying. Looked like someone cut it. Fixed it today.
I work at a smaller shop that does some work with classic/collectors cars
We don’t do the paint mixing ourselves, we go to wesco paint supply for color matching for smaller projects, and then completely outsource full paint jobs to a paint shop
I see the classic/collector vehicle behind the GT500. Love the black. Looks nice!

I thought my “heal-toe” lesson was nothing short of inspiring!

I explained that to my wife. She was like, “
”I learned later I could just hold the brake and let out on the clutch and it would start moving. I was nervous that day, and worn out. I need to go back.

Next time you take the jeep out for a spin, practice working the clutch when you come to a stoplight on a hill. Try to hold it in place with just the clutch...well, you'll roll back and forth a couple feet, but you shouldn't need the brake OR the gas pedal. Good practice to develop the feel of how that engages and build muscle memory.
The way I taught all my kids to drive a clutch, and also the way I teach folks to ride a motorcycle, is the learn to get the vehicle moving without using the gas. That’s the best way I’ve found to understand how to work the friction zone.
I don’t roll back at all on hills in town with the clutch. That was happening 34 years ago.
Back tires were hanging on a ledge. Had me skeered with little sleep camping seven nights straight and flopping day before.

Yes. I taught my kids the same way. That situation had me skeered and I was worn out (camping seven days straight and flopped day before). That’s all.
I still want an auto. I wheeled my sons and it was nice. So much control. My R is so bad now I only get it in first time about 20% of the time. Mike couldn’t even get it in at all, and neither can any of my three older kids who all drive manual.
