3. "Don't change that dial or your dipstick will fall off." - actual quote from the show.

They also wanted their bumper sticker to read, "Perhaps you could drive better with that cell phone shoved up your kiester." (sp?)

Management refused the request.

They actually solved a MAJOR problem for me. The caller was a newspaper carrier (or perhaps rural post delivery person, forget which) who had an older car that would stall at every stop as if he was driving a manual and didn't use the clutch. They knew the problem immediately. For mileage efficiency, they started putting magnetic couplings in automatic transmissions. In essence, it would bind the engine to the transmission and bypass the torque converter. Over time, many of them gum up and won't break free at lower speeds. Hence, you ARE driving a manual transmission, but without a floor clutch. I had my mechanic disconnect the coupling circuit and VOILA! No more problem. It was one wire.
