For some reason I can't do anything other than do the double speed. When I press button 1 or 2 it says that Another action is in progress.... tried leaving vehicle and getting a new one, and abandoning quest and starting over.
if you lose your machine, and forgot where you got it... its in keel harbor by the boats

Night Elven Bow, Seryl's Promise, 10g 70s, 3,450 XPDescription
The night elves made good on their promise. They've brought ships and are ready to offer us sanctuary in their lands. Unfortunately, the Forsaken's allies have arrived as well. The orcs are advancing upon us while the Horde gunship prevents the transport ships from taking our people to safety. The druids are holding the enemy back, but won't last long. Fortunately, the elven ships were carrying siege weapons. Take one of the glaive throwers and meet the enemy head on.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Keel Harbor
We might've lost our city, but at least it looks like the dead have forgiven us. Meet with the rest of the survivors in Keel Harbor. I'm sure there's plenty to do before we're in the clear. Genn hasn't arrived yet, so I suppose Lord Crowley will be in charge there.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Endgame
We need to get rid of that flying gunship if our people have any chance of escaping. Here's the plan. Keel Harbor had its share of rebel sympathizers in the old days. I've managed to round up a hefty amount of incendiary explosives from one of our storehouses.
