...well, not a problem for me. I am back in Iraq now and since I don't have a house right now the 'stang is staying at my parents. I got an e-mail from my mom the other day complaining how I am going to cost her a lot of money. She drove my car and loves it so much my parents are now looking for thier own 'stang! I think they are wanting a 'vert though. They are even looking for a GT, probably an auto. Funny thing is my car gets better gas milage than both thier dd's so I think that helped a little.

i have a smilar problem and the wife wants me to teach her how to drive a stick on my brand new car??
I am torn about what to do. if i teach her then she will want/be abel to take it whenever she wants. and we can't have that now can we. she shares the car she can share the paymenst i guess.

Remember one thing about marriage
Whats mine is mine and whats mine is hers, and whats hers is definatly not "ours"

Thanks for your service and keeping people like me safe.

My Dad seemed to be in a similar boat to yours since driving mine. He owned a 69 Mach 1 and it brought back some memories.

I will teach people on my car. I learned to drive stick on my car (well, I had learned before, but had only driven about 5 other times and never for more than about 15-20 minutes), so I figure what the hell - damage is already done. Besides... the sooner the clutch wears out, the sooner I have a reason to get a better one with a flywheel.

I tried to teach the wife how to drive it while I was home and she didn't do too bad, but she still won't take it out by herself. She doesn't mind the mustang but says she has "outgrown fast cars". I think it's because she doesn't like the manual, if I had her camaro running good she would change her mind on that!
