It doesn't become an adventure until you are using both cup holders with two 32oz drinks.
My wife would always question why I had an attitude when she asked me to pick something up on the way home for us, so one day I did that to her. She never asked that question again, and I spent Saturday cleaning the sticky off the center console and drying my shift boot moat. |

Man shifting was never harder than that. Lol. I just skipped my 3rd gear. -------------------- |

It's not much better with an auto. It's defiantly a two person job.

There is also some kind of voodoo magic that keeps the doors from locking if your keys are in the ignition.

I am going to be fabricating a new console all the way up to the edge of the shift boot so I can have some damn cup holders that don't make me have to crane shift anymore haha, never had to drink so much out of cans haha.

If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |
