The 82 had to take some abuse tonight!

Taught my gf how to drive a manual tonight lol. I knew she would get it quick, she stalled it the first try but rolled out pretty darn smooth the 2nd time. she did stall it a few more times but overall I was impressed. we did not really work on rowing gears, next time. one thing I cant believe id say is the truck has to much legroom for someone lmao. seat all the way up is a little to far to push the clutch easily for a 5 footer.

i taught my ex girl how to drive mine after i did that she wouldn't stop bugging me to drive it. for two months she drove it more than i did, so i kicked her to the curb. best thing i ever did.
