Yeah, I can't do the labor myself and I would like to think that I will have the car for another 100k since there is absolutely no reason I would want something else. IMO it is one of the best cars to have where we live. If it was a coupe I could have the excuse that it doesn't work with kids but, the four doors make it workable for now. Its also paid for and gets decent gas mileage with more power than most other cars can offer off the shelf.

I drove the car for a maximum of 4 miles in 1st gear after the break. I imagine that was just long enough to disperse the metal bits everywhere. I guess I will find out when I open it. On a side note, how much does a dry 5mt weigh? I don't have a tranny floor jack so I am thinking about just taking it out by hand.
