My old manager at Radioshack had a Mondeo over in England somewhere... said it was easier to learn to drive a stick on the right than on the left.
That overhead console is cool, but I like my sunroof better.

I think I want your trip computer 
But yes, I want to do that to mine also (since the previous owner painted it all white...)

That's the trip computer people have been talking about (like I just did)...
I'm going to attempt to put one in my SVT when I get to Germany.
Do y'all see the radio remote control stalk on the column under the turn signals? What about the hieght-adjustable headlight switch to the left of the main headlight switch? More things we never saw... Adj. headlights are amusing for a couple minutes at least.
So...what information does a "trip computer" display?
