    It seems like everything is so automated that it wouldn't make a difference. I guess a human can fuck up a "well-oiled" machine though.

    I've heard that the original humvees were purchased based on their build dates, or days, I should say. Might be urban legend.

    No way. My Nissan is still running strong with no serious issues. It's been a great truck. Well built. Not much in the way of nannies or oversized HU's. A tough little truck for the money. A modest 1230 payload. The great VQ motor is the key! My head unit recently developed an intermittent boot up issue. Getting a new one under warranty. I don't see myself going back to Yota or any other midsize truck. They're simply too expensive with things I don't want or need. Half ton and midsize truck prices are becoming silly. Ha! Manny is a huge car fan now. He likes the Camaro a lot but...the GTR or a pristine Skyline is high on his list!

    I think we have identified the source of the twist-knob gear shifter.
