--- Quote from: Foxscotch on July 21, 2014, 03:34:08 PM ---why do people call it stick anyway? automatic transmissions still have a stick for shifting, there are just less options --- End quote --- Automatic transmissions don't use their sticks to change gears as much though. Manual transmissions need more attention so I guess they get the name. Stick is technically just slang. |

orite, manual is fun to drive :D |

So what do y'all think about this idea: I find stuffty cars on craigslist that just need a little work and try and fix them up, wash and wax, give a good home detail, and then sell for profit? Is it worth the time and effort? |

You don't want to buy a rusted out car that nobody would care about because you will likely spend more fixing the car than you'll earn on selling it. |

I think I'd only do it if the work was really something you'd enjoy, because like XR-7 said, a profit isn't guaranteed |
