Yep,, I learned how to drive in my dad's Land Rover many, many, many, many
Moons Ago!! He took me out to Joshua Tree National Monument (Yes, I know
it is now a National Park) and I learned the delicacies of Double Clutching
on the dirt trails. Never could quite get the 2nd to 1st down clutch right
to his satisfaction...
