Manual Labor
Hey fellas, just stumbled across this site. I started with a manual Ford Ranger that got the axe to make way for an Acura 3.0CL(loved everything but the slushbox), so that got booted for a manual Honda Civic EX, but engine troubles changed that to the current 1996 Honda Accord EX 5-speed. I love her. Summer doesnt last too long in Wisconsin, but my main ride right now every chance I get is a 1998 Kawasaki Ninja 500R. And I am 17, paid for all this on my own. Not too shabby.

Re: Manual Labor
Welcome to the site, ninja. I can relate to short summer and long winters, especially the last one.
Enjoy your stay, these are some fine folk here.

Re: Manual Labor
Sorry if I mispoke I have only had one vehicle at a time, until recently with the accord and the ninja. I dont have all those cars, just moved from one to the other. So far no tickets on any of them either.

Nothing wrong with a teen with some money! I made mine off the stock market.... even though some of my friends still insist that I sell drugs.
