A week ago I went some place for work and had a automatic rental. I passed where I was supposed to go and so used to my cars I went to slap the clutch down and crank the wheel and to do a Uey(there was nobody around) what ended up being both feet on the brake with the wheel pulled to the left. Poor little Contour, must have looked like the dukes of hazard or something. -Hey aren't you supposed to drive like that in a rental anyways? -Kris
