id ask for the middle :P best of both worlds lol... if there is an advantage to having the wheel on a particular side :?


the only advantage of rhd is being able to go to a macca's drive thru by yourself. the advantage of lhd is when cruising, (perving, sightseeing) what eva you want to call it you get a better look as you are closer to the sight you want to see, considering we drive on the left side of the road.

if i had the coin to own a stang it would have to be lhd. as for the caution lhd stickers we don't have them here in qld any more either.


have you ever driven a LHD on the left hand side of the road? (dont take that as a smart a** comment lol)


I've done many miles in the stang... hence my comment on how mentally draining it can be!!!

when I lived in the middle east, where all the cars are LHD, I found it a lot easier to drive, and took very little to get used to being in a LHD car ('94 Stang).

Yet when i got back to Aus, I found it took a while to get used to RHD again.

So if I had Stang it'd have to be LHD.
