If anybody can put an actual document showing the FRS had more ATs I would love to see it. Blogs, clickbait sites and other forum posts do not count.
I would agree. When I wanted a silver 16 in AT, I was told that I got the last one in June 2016. The day before he found it, the dealer pushed hard to sell the black MT he had, or a silver MT from Florida. He said I could almost get any color MT, but there were way less AT available. I do not think this is because everyone bought them, I think there were just more MTs because that’s where the demand was.

You really should dig through there. No telling what you may find.

Exactly.

The requirements for a car to be called classic are well laid out by most of the recognized groups. If a bunch of other people want to call them classics it doesn’t make them classics.
I find your slavish following of authorities highly erotic.

Oh, yes, my basement. I figure thousands of years from now, when they discover my basement, the question will arise as to why did this human keep all this broken stuff and nothing appears to have been fixed?

I just fixed our pressure washer. Good ol' Subie engine runs like a champ and I literally giggled at the power of the new pump. Mrs. Ultra will be pleased.


My brother gave me the washer back in 2005. How long until it's a classic?

Indiana DMV says it's eligible for historic plates as long as you limit mileage, and don't drive it every day

I put all the new parts into the original pump housing so the numbers still match.
