to make a long story short, i was robbed at gunpoint on tues at my office. the dude demanded money so i gave him an empy money-bag. then he saw my cell and wanted that. Then he told me to give him the keys to my new frontier. i was thinking ohhh nooo not my truck please dont mess up my truck. so then he runs outside i hear him start my truck, by then i'm about to cry thinking about all the bad stuff hes gonna do with my truck, i wasnt worried about myself or the money at that point just my truck. so he starts the truck and all i can hear is just him revving the engine so i peak out the window and he cant back up the truck!!!! i was like holy shit the dude cant drive a stick!!! so i called 911 and i'm watching him fiddle with the shift knob and stalling out the truck and i realise the dumbass doesnt know how to get it in reverse!!!(its a 6 speed) so then he bailed out of the truck and ran away on foot. the cops show up and find he left my keys and the phone in my truck. so that was cool, the only thing he got was an empty money bag. They havnt found him yet and it looks like hes robbed a couple of other places in the area since then. so hopefully they will catch this dumbass. Ive never had a real gun pointed at me before so it was a crazy feeling that i hope i will never feel again.

If someone stole the keys to my car, they still couldn't do much without the steering wheel...

But good thing you came out of this ok.

He didn't check the money bag before he left?

Because imo it could've ended up worse if he found out that you were faking him.


Might I ask what line of work you do?

Yeah, my dads Z has that too. He let one of my bros friends take it for a spin and after numerous tries we had to tell him how to get it into reverse. It's like anti-theft!

Great story! What's with the money bag though?

the ford focus's are even crazier, right underneath the shift knob theres a little ring that you pull up and hold to be able to put it in reverse, my girlfriends fat ugly fuckin bitch ass stupid loser sister owned it =)

yea it didnt really hit me till that night that that dude could have ended my life if he wanted to. i bad part was i didnt know the money bag was empty when i gave it to him, the lady i work with layed it on my desk before she left so thats the first thing i thought to give to him. for some reason i came into work the next day and i was all paranoid and shit for half the day. every time i hear the front door open my heart started beating real fast and i got a big lump in my throught.

wow...I'm surprised you even showed up to work the next day. You work at a bank or was that a money bag for a bank drop?

So was he just trying to put it into 6th gear to reverse? Or was it that he just couldn't drive a manual?

Glad you're ok. And also, he just kept trying for so long that you had time to call the police AND wait for them to show up? LOL

I'm assuming it's like the Z, and its in the same place as 6th gear except you have to push down(towards the ground) to get it into reverse. Trickier than those ring things I think...

your half right. you have to have it in neutral, push down (toward the ground) then over to the right, then back...http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v223/dizastaman/pattern.jpg so, i'm guessing he just kept putting it in sixth
