I miss ol Light too, always had interesting things to say. His last post was over a year ago, so I fear Father Time might have finally called his name.

Never been to Milwaukee 😀 ,just Florida. Perhaps the steep driveways are because it is so flat here... for rain runoff. Big PITA when driving sometimes though

I get the appeal of the low to the ground look, but man it’s too hard getting in and out of steep driveways as it is. I wish it could be a bit higher, but it would probably look really goofy

Sorry to hear about that, while nissan CVTs have improved, there still a few bad ones out there. Hopefully the dealer can offer a good option.

I really wish there was a way to disable the “shift points”, because I think it would perform even better if just acted like a CVT... and adjusted as fast as it could. It’s still impressive at a 5.7...

4k to pop in a new transmission at 100k isn’t a dealbreaker for me. I got a good deal for it when I bought it, and the the smoothness and instant power has won me over.
