    That is hysterical! Those threads sure do get a lot of traction for some reason! My right hand to God, I'll never start an oil or a tire thread.

    I think I was leaning more toward the Cadillac XT5 (Which I own) than the Buick Roadmaster (which my parents owned) from the 80s! Kidding aside, that is all part of it. Unless it is a pure track...

    DCT is incredible. Not sure if you heard, but they are upgrading it again for 2021. If I am understanding it correctly, they now have a rider programmed mode. So, the DCT will know not to go down...
