Sorry about that guys...yes, I ment to ask where the dip stick is for the transmission fluid. I wanted to add a little tranny boost fluid but couldn't figure out where to pour it in.....hey and on a side note, I deserve the bashing I just took from everyone, its funny. Only this once, I wish I wasn't laying in bed with my 23 yr.old girlfriend and was paying attention to the post so I could have prevented 2 pages worth of insults towards my stupidity.

The spare is stored at the Goodyear store. All you have to do is walk in, bend over and give them your wallet.

I'm glad you didn't take the bashing too hard and saw the humor in your original post.

Well then, you could have called one of us in to help while you went back to the computer to make sure you upheld your honor....
I'm sure anyone of us would be more than happy to help a fellow forum member in a time of need...........

Speaking of needing help, I hate to ask but I can't find my back seats, I've looked in the owner's manual but it doesn't mention anything about them. Any ideas?

Trust me, you were WAY better off in bed with the g/f. You've got a long time to check the oil!

By the way, unless you're 50 + we're not impressed with the 23 y/o gf.

Well, while sympathy is in short supply...

Next time you're in your 'vette, lift up your shirt, and you'll find that's where it's been hiding all those years. Next you'll want to know where the valve stem is to inflate it probably.

Damn funny.

Since the tranny is at the rear of the car, there is no dipstick for it up front. Only the oil dipstick is in the engine compartment.

Are you guys this rough with questions a woman may ask? If so, I am changing my user name so you won't know who I am!
But, I must confess, I cracked up on your response! I hope he has a good sense of humor!

Funny, but you know the decals on the windshield sun visors say that the back seat is safer for kids !!!!!!!! I looked and couldn't find mine either!
