Piston Slap: Honey, If You Do This For Me…

TTAC commentator sastexan writes:

Sajeev –

One of my best friends is shopping to replace his Mazdaspeed6 for something a little more utilitarian that can hold his bicycle and gear in the back (frequent triathlete). Here’s the issue – he wants to get another manual shift car, but his wife is pressing for an automatic because she has never learned to drive stick.

Mikey For 36.4 years i punched the clock at GM Canada.. For the last 15.5 years (frozen at 2008 rates) my GM pension shows up in my account. I flirted with Fords for a couple of years but these days I'm back to GM vehicles and still qualify for employee price. Speaking as a High School drop out ..GM provided myself and family a middle class lifestyle.. And still does .. Sorry if i don't join in to the ever present TTAC ..GM Bash fest

THX1136 A Mr. J. Sangburg, professional manicurist, rust repairer and 3 times survivor is hoping to get in on the bottom level of this magnificent property. He has designs to open a tea shop and used auto parts store in the facility as soon as there is affordable space available. He has stated, for the record, "You ain't seen anything yet and you probably won't." Always one for understatement, Mr. Sangburg hasn't been forthcoming with any more information at this time. You can follow the any further developments @GotItFiguredOut.net.
