    Congrats on ditching the cigs.
    I was over a pack/day and Jodi was less.....me 9 packs/week her 6 packs/week....25 per pack

    it's shocking how fast it adds up

    so in the last 12 months we haven't

    1) burned through over 19,000 cigarettes
    2) emptied ashtrays over 730 times
    3) spent $12,000 at various convenience stores

    I'm guessing the convenience stores aren't too happy
    Keep it up....will be 5 years for me in August...what i saved paid for my stang!! + some.

    May as well ask since you brought up the auto.
    That's my other alternative.. what would you do, Tr6060 with MGW etc or a 6R80 with the US shift controller and paddles. Car is 450-500 wheel Eaton blown 3V, next year hopefully building a new block and want to turn up the power and put a VMP blower on it. Need something stronger then the 3650. I know the auto will be faster on the street and drag strip but not sure if I will miss the connection that you get with a stick.

    I think I'd have a hard time making the transition myself for the reason you cited...it really connects you to the car. Granted, at some point, my left leg (knee/hip) might force a move to AOD....but till then, I'll be giving it a good work out each time I take out the Shelby.

    ^^^^I don't think my fingers and slight arthritis would like the paddles - they ache watching my gamers at home playing fort night and car racing games - they ache using my cursor and cell phone - but I would love a sequential shift in the traditional zone....!!!
