Hehe, boy have I become spoiled .

shifting sucks, mostly because the equipment sucks. No workable defrost in many, gotta keep the windows and the backdoor open sometimes to keep the windows defogged.

True, and whats up with not having air conditioning? A fan just does not cut it. And driving at a max speed of 15 mph does not lend to great air flow.

And when you leave the back door open on some of those slugs the exhaust fumes you breath can make you sick .
