My parents will rue the day when they can no longer drive stick-shifts... Unless they get repetitive-strain injurys in their left legs, they will continue to get manuals, even if it means paying more.

I just wanted to ley you guys know of a positive development... My mom told me yesterday that since we're going to have to get a new car for her within the next couple of years anyway, they would buy one this summer and she would give me the G20, since I will probably need a car for whatever AmeriCorps position I get (I submitted the application last month and am already basically a shoe-in for a job here in Baltimore), and I will definitely need a car if I don't do AmeriCorps, as I will be working full-time. This will effectively be my first car, even though she will still be the registered owner.
