    I guess VW is really taking over. I heard a rumor that all cars will come with automatic and they will make you pay for a manual. Was it not the other way around?

    One of the reasons I was attracted to my wife 21 years ago was that she drove a 3 on the tree in her Chevy Citation. I was so impressed, although maybe it wasn't so surprising for a farm girl from Minnesota. How's a guys supposed to pick a mate if everyone drives an auto ?
