Reminds me of learning to drive a maual diesel rabbit... That thing would buck violently!

CV joints shouldn't wear because of lugging the motor (HP should be low and torque lower as well). Worn CV joints will click- more so if you are turning the drive wheels (steering).

How low an RPM is "safe" to drive at? Seems like my Vibe cuts off fuel at 1,100 rpm with no gas pedal. I try to keep the RPMs below 2,000 usually.
