this car owner is definitely invested
in transmitting
what they think is a very important message/warning
let this be a lesson.
it’s from ‘the ‘MGPS’ after all.
note: (manuals don’t often help me but they do help the person i hire to help me)

‘everyone is flailing through this life without an owner’s manul,
with whatever modicum of grace and good humor we can manage.’

I’m amazed that a MGPS even exists. Especially in America where automatics are more or less the ‘norm’. Both of our cars have manual gearboxes. They are usual in the UK, greatly outnumbering automatics. (Before the recent trend for hybrids and electric cars of course, which are rarely manual.) My previous car had a 6-speed automatic gearbox, and I much preferred that. When it comes time to change the cars, we will definitely be looking to go automatic again.
Best wishes, Pete.

Manuals are there for everything but who is using them today. Only when one requires.

Drove 5 on the floor truck manuals for years but now have a little 2017 KIA RIO automat. Have the manuels for it too. Need them “change clock” instruction times.
