    You really shouldn't be shifting around tranny modes unless you are at a stoplight or something to that effect. I can understand you guys going into manual mode on the fly because you are entering terrain that the manual mode would be better suited for. Is it a small gripe? Yes but at the same time I have to wonder if you guys are not using this as intended.

    I'm surprised that you don't have a gripe with the little +/- button on the steering column lever to change gears in manual mode. Does the truck have paddle shifts? That rocker switch looks ridiculous.

    This is all you have to gripe about? Sheesh!

    I had a Sonic as a rental in Las Vegas last week and I had the same issue with ending up in Neutral. I think it was exacerbated by the very short distance between the detents, as I never ended up in Neutral coming out of the manual gate with my Intrepid.
