    5sp Automatic

    I always use my parking brake, saves wear and tear on the parking mechanism. Any time you allow the vehicle to roll against it, that causes wear. I also have a habit of using the parking brake since my previous vehicle was a stick-shift.

    That's absolutely insane! The highest markup I've seen around here is 5k. Someone needs to get their head examined if they think a buyer will pay that.
