Some of it is over here. Which is why I can't find out if the 'Cat won't do under 30 mph.

Isn't that how the saying "Stick in the mud" came about?

Ah, another thing I've never tried with the 'Cat.

Sure. Pigs do fly on occasion.

What, you have no street signs around your 'hood? (Sorry, trancein, couldn't resist).

Good point. I overlooked that fact that if it's a stick shift it won't slow down - at least not to below idle - so if in Fourth or Fifth, the car will still go pretty fast. Especially if the idle is at 2,000 rpm.

Hmm, I'll have to try that sometime. Taking my foot off the gas, that is. Although, when I come back home I keep the speed down on the gravel driveway, which initially slopes down, at 5 mph or so. Used to lock it in 1st gear, but that's a bit too slow at idle, so these days I tap the brakes a...

I'm glad mine doesn't idle at 2,000 rpm.

Because OXYMORON doesn't fit?

Knowing how fashion conscious you can be, how could they not recommend a color matched filter??

I would assume that Hellcatcfp came to visit, then proceed with firing up the machinery that could shred that thing.

Hmm. Never did consider that if it's parked nose in, the thief wouldn't necessarily know about the splitter guards and steal it anyway. Oh, yeah, it's coming back to me now. And I can relate, as my '18 was so filthy when I got to the dealer to pick it up that it would've been impossible to...

You could, if you moved over here. Away from the need for A/C, alligators, snakes, heat, humidity, hurricanes, and such.

Better run that idea by the Taxi Alliance first and see if it's permissible.

They do work, no doubt about it. Especially as a theft deterrent.

Doesn't apply to me. If there's a grocery store nearby, I'm not speeding. While I frequently go twice the speed limit on open roads, I do not speed in towns or cities.

The Valentine's ability to show how many signals it's picking up has saved me a number of times. There are cops that use "normal" signals to their advantage.

Hmm. I don't remember anyone giving you crap about it. Oh well, sometimes my memory sorts out things I'd rather not remember.

Not the best chapter in your life as I recall.

You'll have to edumacate me here. Yes, there's no GPS in the Valentine, but why should there be? I use Garmin GPSs to keep track of where I am, and the Valentine to avoid getting caught. And my phone has nothing to do with either. Except for AlfaOBD, my life is completely app free, and I like...
