I learned to drive on a stick, but it's been years...I'd be a little scared to drive on the interstate in a strange vehicle without knowing what I was doing. But hopefully they'd have time to at least check it over and change oil...if it's not too late to make an appointment for Thursday. I could always bring it back another day for the actual work, provided it's safe to keep driving it.
I'd be willing to give the local shop a shot. Save me a long drive. I'd still like to go up to the beach house at some point, but it looks like this week is going to be rainy anyhow.
Still waiting to hear from bothers about tomorrow...
Well, lets do that then. I'll call in the morning and see if they will have time Thurs. If they end up needing it more than a day, you can use the Ranger if you want... you could drive it around and get comfortable... The interstate's easier than town anyway! A lot less shifting!
