This week AA says they don't have any 2wd 4spd in stock ready to ship.
They must receive mine first, then they say they need 3 weeks to turn it
around, then ship it back to me. That adds up to about 4 weeks and I'm
on the West Coast. Same things they told me last time I called when I
needed one quick. Maybe shops get a different deal?

They do have a very strong reputation so it may be worth the wait if you
have the time.
