Transmission Braking

New Manual Transmission - $3000 installed - once every 10-15 years
New Brakes - $500 installed - Once every 7 years

Do the math, jackasses.

Don't use your transmission to brake, because when you do your brake lights don't come on and I don't know you're stopping until after I'd like to.

Also, transmission braking wears out your transmission really quickly. If you do it all the time and at highways speeds (like some clean-late in the black volvo S70 did) your transmission won't last but a few years.

Also, the highway is not a rally racing course nor is it F1 and you are no Danica Patrick.
