    You know, I always found the '09 Frontier I had to be peppy as hell; was a V6 4x4 stickshift and that thing was very responsive.

    Speaking of CVTs though, wasn't the Nissan you rented at Moab a CVT?

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Okay, that was mean of me. I already knew it was cracked, they all are haha. And there's no such thing as one that isn't rusty. And the 5.2 and 5.9 gassers all have that horrible oil guzzling busted lower plenum and the 42re trans is just waiting to up and die and leave the truck stranded seemingly with no prior symptoms. I've had the displeasure of witnessing all of those things haha. So I mean this when I say it, I really hope owning it goes smoothly for you. Maybe you'll have been lucky and the previous owner took care of all the time bomb problems they have. The mid 90s through the mid 2000s era was really bad for chrysler finances and quality, they had one big vehicle that sold like hotcakes and it was a minivan.

    I have an informal interview tomorrow. Government contractor IT job. These video call interviews feel so odd but I got my current job doing recorded video questions. Nothing is worse than that.

    Good luck!!

    I got my recent job with 2 phone interviews, it was awesome! Apparently the average was 4 inpersons pre covid. Interviewing in the time of covid rocks if you are an introvert who hates in person meetings like myself!
