     A few years ago I owned a Maverick w/ 3-speed on the column.  When the
shifter was moved to the floor, I had to wire a new back-up light switch
because the switch for the column shifter was at the base of the steering
column.  I took the lazy way out and mounted a manual switch on the control
panel.

     One day this Dodge Colt came up behind me like a bat out of Phoenix and
sat 1 foot from my rear bumper, then flashed its headlights at me to get out
of its way(this happened in broad daylight on the Bayshore Freeway near San
Mateo, Calif.).  I flashed my back-up lights at him, using the same timing
pattern he did.  I did not know that Colts could move that fast!
