    Oh, I know it's NASA level shit going on. So many communication lines going to the dozens of modules. If one of the high or low speed com lines or 5v reference goes haywire, you're in for a bad day.

    But not sure if I prefer all that, or the eventual burned up wiring going through the turnstalk. Had that issue in my '87 Oldsmobile. Everything has its plusses and minuses.

    Spent the day with the Green Bean adventuring. It's so nimble on those narrow, winding mountain roads. Only saw one logging truck while up there.

    My recently installed Cooper Discoverer Road & Trails performed flawlessly on the snowy/slushy mountain roads too. 5 Stars.
