My Nissan had it, press down and throw waaaaaaaaay to the right until your hand is in another time zone, then down for R out past 6th.
On more than one occasion I watched shop guys and porters repeatedly find 6th before giving up and asking me to reverse it out of the bay.
Huh, someone should tell my old car that Reverse is in the wrong spot.
Edit: Better CC VW on that email - because they made a lot of manuals with reverse next to 1st; like for decades levels of "a lot".
Um, no. Sorry, but every part of that sentence is wrong.
The rudder controls yaw, not pitch and the control for the rudder is the rudder pedals, not the yolk or stick.
The yolk controls the ailerons (wings control surfaces) and elevator (horizontal stabilizer control surfaces). The rudder...
My truck came with these from Vision-X, and so far they've been flawless. Mine are wired into the aux switch and I applied some Lamin-X amber skins over them so they double as dust/chase lights. If you email the company they might sell you the amber lights instead, even though they aren't...
Another thing that's backwards is bicycle brakes. Front brake should be on the right, dammit! All my bikes have been swapped - so it will be funny as hell if someone steals one and goes to jam on the rear brake.
It's still that muscle memory. I've driven more miles on and off road in a standard transmission than I have in an auto - I was really happy to see pulling back was the upshift with this transmission, it just felt more natural to me.
I'm always shifting the wrong way whenever I borrow a car...
But the Money Shift is always towards you, that’s why Mercedes designed the Dog Leg transmission, to put that shift between 2 and 3 for tighter circuits

FFS, the truck has the ability to automatically learn the sensors and their locations, just put TPMS in the second set of wheels and mount them up. After a mile or two the truck will have itself synced up.
Yeah, about that... Don't expect them to stand behind it unless you make enough of a fuss or indicate some kind of enforcement, like a credit card charge back or complaining to government oversight agencies.
Chargebacks hurt the business, if they get enough they end up paying increased costs...
Honestly, the 3.73 gears are plenty with how much damned torque mine makes. Even with heavy-as-hell 35"s on there and stock gearing I have to remember to go to 4-low just to get the torque converter locked up and not slip it unnecessarily. Most of the time the truck climbs as well in 4-high as...
