Make sure it's not a shifter problem, or something simple like that!

I finally got mine in the mail Saturday. It was delivered Monday, logged into their system yesterday, and today (Wednesday) shows as completed and shipped! It's coming from PA, so I would imagine it will only be a couple days back to me. Not bad at all!

I need to "mow" mine to mulch the leaves in...

The CRX HF was getting MPG's that hybrids are touting as good these days. Sounds like a good deal for someone that can fix it, for a commuter!

GM is releasing their "Super Cruise" this year that will allow a hands free driving experience in certain highway conditions. https://www.gmcar.gm.com/issues_issue2.aspx

I don't browse OR while on the shitter. I HATE the mobile version (of most websites, not just OR, so don't have a cow, Casper) and I hate the zooming in and out and scrolling the view the the full site on the phone. I just play games on the phone while on the shitter. With that said, it's time to go to the shitter.

It was mentioned in a comment already. This is nothing but a move say that they "did something" in the wake of such an event. The word appease comes to mind...

Raspberry Pi running OSMC. Be ready for some work to get it all running, though. Works great with the Logitech K400, or the TV remote via CEC.

I dropped my Pro-Tac 2AA Streamlight yesterday. I got the claim submitted, and the will be sending the light back to them Monday. The date code on it is 0312, which means it was made in March of 2012. It must have been pretty fresh when I bought it because I've had close to that long. It's been through hell, and is pretty beat up.

CSR/CSI is ruining businesses. Kind of like schools "teaching the test" we work for good surveys, not doing the best job we can. While in theory, the best job we can do SHOULD get a good survey, it takes ass-kissing to actually get one.

Thanks for posting this, and for bringing it back to the top each year.

GM has pretty much everything that is needed for this, with the exception of the software being put into the vehicles. They MAY need to add more side radar , but they have side cameras that seem to work well for low speed maneuvering. We also have the haptic feed back (in the seats) for lane departure. We also have lane keep assist that will keep you between the lines. The rumor that I hear is that GM with have a self-driving vehicle this next year. Still not in production though, due to all of the legalities. I'd love to take a Tesla out for a cruise. Any of the electric/hybrid stuff that I have driven has some pretty hard acceleration!

Because that's how little this stuff REALLY costs to produce! The regular market models are usually a little more robust, but I would doubt that they're 5-10 times the cost more robust! We ahve some Android tablets floating around the house here that came from one of those china crap websites. Some of them actually work really well.

More likely an open circuit than a short. Wiring has never been Chrysler's strong point, either. Man, I had better go easy on the Chrysler bashing, since I drive one!

Unfortunately, the best guy I know when it comes to Chrysler's and their transmission has moved on to GM! Otherwise, I'd tell you to take it to where he worked!

They have resources for technical assistance, THEY know what THEY need to do! That fancy scanner that they checked for the codes with? It's connected to a laptop. They can put said laptop in the truck, maybe even have someone else with them to drive, and watch the data and take a "snapshot" or recording of what's going on when the problem occurs. It could be as simple as a speed sensor getting a slightly skewed reading, they've had speed sensor issues for MANY years, like all the way back to the early 90's for their transmissions! Let's face it, transmissions are not known to be one of Chrysler's strong points! (I have made a LOT of money fixing them over the years when I was in independent shops, before making the move to GM dealerships.) What bothers me as a technician, is that they would have it go into a lower (that much lower, anyway) gear immediately when it happens. PM me, or hit me up on FB with the Dealership name.

Ok, so what is it? I must have missed it somewhere.

Hey stranger! I haven't even seen you much on Facebook! LOL Congrats on all the big life changing events (house, kid) and don't be such a stranger! OR has changed, but a lot is still the same. Some of the same postwhores are here, some new ones, etc. Casper broke the site by changing to IPboard software (it is supposed to be better, and some things are, others aren't) and people do still ride, and set up group rides, etc. There is still a lot of humor to be found here,

When down there for training, I've stopped in that are several times on the way home for lunch (when we get out that early) and I thought it was pretty nice. In the summer, there's some nice scenery, too.

You should know that you've got the prayers coming from me, bub.

These have been around for a couple years on the tool trucks. There are some out there that aren't as good of quality, and burn up. I have some trust in the Anker brand, so I would THINK their's would be good. I am contemplating the same one, myself.

I agree! Personally, that's all I need to hear.

HOLY SHIT! It MUST be winter for YOU to show up!

I was going to say that you need to warn us that one is NSFW, but it's just plain NS!
