_JD_ Posted September 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 Looks nice! Curious, what don't you like about the FWD? Jeeze- obviously "spelling" should go under my dislikes (trannsmission) I shouldn't say that I don't like FWD- I like it with a manual transmission because you can still induce a bit of oversteer with throttle lift. In an automatic car, all the throttle can really do is introduce under steer (especially without a LSD). I loved the Mazdaspeed 3 with LSD- it was a hoot. I'm obviously not going to be tracking my Edge, so it's a minor gripe. I liked my Explorers RWD and was used to it I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_JD_ Posted September 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 I should add that I also wish that the six speed box had gear selection with buttons or paddles or whatever. It would be nice to be able to select gears semi-manually as the tranny and it's shifts are so good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
