So nice to drive when everybody is not out to kill you.

What's that like?

Question: Was his tranny a five by two or a five by three twin stick?

Damn. Of course I would see this ad this morning.

Same year as mine but short hood, probably a " A" yellow motor,$$$$$. No napper, because a mid- morning nap is great.

one sure needs to be more aware keeping track of the gears! This is a 4x4 so a little easier then a 5 speed + 4 i would think =) I started driving only 4 years ago spoiled since the start in 07's to 17's automatic 12 speeds.. It is quite the difference!

Pretty sure it's a 4x4 progressive. He was using 1st in the auxillary (right stick) and on a regular 4x4 that gear is for climbing trees. Huge RPM gap to 2nd and on this one it just went click click.

If he had used reverse on the main you would know for sure if it was a 4 or a 5. Reverse on a 4 speed is far right and back. 5 speed is far left and forward.
