Whoops!  If it gives you pleasure to row your car around in stop and go
traffic, far be it from me to deprive you <g>  Gotta keep that left thigh
pumped.  OTOH, if you are one of those who delays at stop lights because
they are in neutral and then makes me brake as they pause to shift, I'd
be happy to do the ripping.  I get the feeling you are not one of the latter.

 I live and work in metro Atlanta, ditto.  When I commute, it's stop and go.

Very nice car.  Me, '97 F-150 4.6L 3.55 limited-slip.

I have a strange feeling we're a little too much off-topic <g>.
