Yea, same thing to me, I'll jump out of my '02 5speed, into my dad's '99 Ranger Auto, and try to find the clutch to push the clutch in to start it, and my brother just stares at me like wtf are you doing kicking the floor! (He has a 2011 4.0 4door 5speed) All 3 are oxford white :P

However his Tranny is notchy and very slow shifting compared to my 3.0 5speed which is like a racing transmission.

Just to add a little fight, his with me in my truck alot driving to work, and even he says that my 3.0 will keep up with his 4.0. At least until 60, after that the 4.0 will pull away, we both agree on this.
