I am creating a quick start guide for my Prowler for those times when I let someone drive it for the first time. (I know, I know...I'm asking for trouble. Humor me. ) I mainly want to highlight things that make the Prowler different to drive than most cars. Here's what I plan to include: 1. No ABS, traction control, etc...Drive carfully! Can you think of anything I missed? Also, anyone have a digital (scanned) copy of the owner's manual they would be willing to e-mail me? ------------------ This message has been edited by ondone on 03-11-2012 at 03:39 PM |

Be careful of speed bumps if you have stone guards on front fenders and do not back up in tall grass if you have stone guards. |

Since I lend my Prowler out to a lot of People... Some that have never driven a Prowler before, the first thing that I tell them is when you drive a Prowler it's like driving any other car only from the back seat.. You can't see the front of the car and it's sticking WAY OUT THERE.. Just be careful about it and allow WAY MORE ROOM when pulling up on something... ... onecatnodog |

Unless you are 6'7",,,,you can't see the right front wheel when making right turns,,,,give yourself plenty of clearance.. From the driver's seat to the nose, its 10' away > Please slam the nose into/over a curb, so my Prowler will have the same scratches on the underside as most of the rest of them If the car doesn't shift out of second gear, CALL ME! Incase of an accident,,,,bail out and run,,hide, and don't ever let me see you again! That should cover it.... |

I remember all to well DES just what a stur the Hood opening images I posted with the Hot models caused... I hope that these images doesn't offend the guys this time... At least in the USA you still have the right to be offened, but they have that in the works along with free speach in question... onecatnodog |
