Don't know, but I'm sure there is reverse, and neutral, so a clutch and shifter make sense to me, plus a brake. A clutch can be as simple as a belt tension release.

Enlighten us master oobie-wan.

I was gonna say, French Tickler, but decided that would be in poor taste, so I won't say it.

Coffee is on. Steve hasn't brought the donuts by yet.

Oil change day is tomorrow. Bought 4 gals of Rotella 5-40 last night. So I'm sending the dog off to the day spa, sending Carol shopping, and tackling some truck chores.

I think I'm going to go with synthetic this time myself.

Does Bo spend his spa time at the Petsmart up on Whittier? Max has stayed there once when we were unable to book our local.

He gets his baths there, but this will be the first time to stay all day. They call it Doggie Day Camp, and the dogs just play together all day. It's not overnight. He doesn't seem to know how to relate to other dogs very well, so we want him to spend some play time with others. They will do a bath too while he is there.

We'll see how it goes. It's only ~$20, plus $11 for the bath so that seems pretty reasonable.

I think it's reasonable....plus they'll probably give you a 'report card' when you go to pick him up.

I'm not going to tell him that - don't want him to feel pressured or inadequate.
