I don't want to give em a heart-attack. That is what would happen if I answered the door in the buff. Heck it almost scares me to death when I step out of the shower and look in the mirror.~Mancar1~

How about locking up the brakes in another vehicle, while realizing they are power brakes?
Or, almost yanking the car off the road, when you find it has a quick ratio power steering setup?
Even better, going across a speed bump at 30+, forgetting it's not your truck.......
My girlfriend's VW doesn't like me anymore........

Or mash the gas and expect it to pin you to the seat? Our little Mirage is a five speed, so I don't have the clutch problem; but the roughly 220 less horsepower and steep gears get me everytime.

I got 7 out of 10.
When I pull out of the drive with my wife, I'll say "you know what?"; she says "what?"; "She's a great looking truck!" I say.
The Mrs. falls for it every time.
Cheers,
Bill
You forgot: When the car starts on the first turn you're surprised!

re: How bad have you got it? - Take the test.
Here is a list of things that I did/do when I get into a different car.
1 It took me about a week to get used to the key being on the other side.
2 I wave at other bumpsides, even though they just look at me like I am an idiot.
3 I thought it died at the light, so I had to roll the window down. I am not used to looking at a tach.
4 When I hit the brake while it was sitting in the driveway warming up, I thought it lost pressure because it went down farther than I am used to.
5 I do not use the air conditioning, because now it seems irritating.
6 At first I would pump it 3 times, but now I have gotten used to turning the key and going inside while it warms up.
The car is a yukon. We needed the room, and it gets better mpgs than the excursion. It sux being the guy at school who hates chevy, but is driving one until the ford gets going again. Also, I hate the spoiled kids who drive new cars like this, but my mom and dad started car pooling because they work 30 min away. Before I tore my engine apart to save gas. So it just sits there, unless I use it.
