A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."

I remember when they got rid of power antennas and reception started to suck with the in glass antennas. Things are better now with HD radio, I can get good FM reception with the shark fin antenna even in underground parking structures.

Take me to your man!

Especially if he's a man that can please himself

I guess pleasing yourself meant something different back in those days.
