You are a trans guy, which didn't sound right, but have you ever seen one of those fat cables snap?
A buddy had an old VW bug that would eat clutch cables. So bad he always had a spare. The one time he didn't we had to start the thing in gear and try to match close enough to shift, to get home in a blizzard in rural Colorado. Not fun.
HA! He said float-shifting.. I learned how to do that in a Renault Alliance way back in the day and agreed.. NOT a fun drive, not even for a get me home story.
