It's because he's been swooned by, gasp, a WOMAN. Women have been known to
have strange powers over men. These men, once fallen into her trap, lose all
grasp of logic and reason. He'll spend less time on the car and more on HER.
It's an age old story.
I am impressed. Who is this woman? I'd like to meet her and shake her hand.
She sounds all right to me.

YIKES!!!
Straight from a LBC to a Scooby? Talk about jumping a few rungs on the
automotive evolutionary ladder. ;^) Let's all pray that JD can get quickly
acclimated to a car that doesn't require constant "tinkering". You know,
and old dog and all that jazz.
FWIW, The local Subie guys love their STI short shifters.
