Mom is 90, Dad will be 92 in June.
'84 and '96 900 three doors, both sticks.
Mom is a steady stick driver, but is anxious, getting underway on steep grades with a stick. But she hasn't driven an automatic in 20 years. She tells people (ready?)
She's not sure she knows how to drive an automatic or could learn it again. Yup, the opposite of the usual complaint!! :^)
But seriously I guess they might consider switching both cars, to two newer Saabs with automatics - to avoid the confusion of daily switching back and forth between sticks and automatics. They're out in rural California; they don't drive anything even remotely frantic or congested.
