....actually, my car does have 5 speeds. 0 to 55, 55 to 85, 85 to 115, 115 to 150, 150 to 185(all speeds are approx.) hehehe!! if it only had 5 gears, it would only have one speed, since a manual transmission is full of gears. hehehe!! :sly:
 
That would either be 4 shifts (1st - 2nd - 3rd - 4th - 5th being four shifts) or 20 shifts (being able to shift into any given gear from any other).

Not to mention the reverse in addition to forwards gears.

...hey...... you forgot....neutral! :sly: BTW, i'm very disappointed by the limited amount of smiley's available!! :grumpy: 👎
 
Interesting. Do you count a shift into neutral as a full shift?

...well, whenever i go to Europe, i use neutral...driving downhill...hehehe... :dopey:
 
That's a bit dim.

Put the car in the highest gear (not speed) possible and only use the brake pedal. That way, the wheels drive the engine and the engine uses NO FUEL. Whilst in neutral, the engine consumes fuel to remain at tickover. By leaving the car out of gear, you're also increasing braking distances.

Driving with the car in neutral is strongly discouraged by most driving authorities, including Roadcraft (the UK's police driving bible) and will fail you your driving test.
 
...i know, but... i like the...almost.......silent drive........ :dopey: maybe i should get a..... golf cart..? :sick:
