I said I was going to do it...

funny thing is mom did the same thing on a tr7..she did love driving that car like she stole it

Those trumpets didn't like too much abuse. if you got them hot the cylinder head would start shattering like glass. :doh:
 
well it wasnt ours..but a friends...when he would borrow the truck shed have the tr7 to herself....many months later said friend ran it off the road down 30 foot of enbankment bouncing off trees narrowly dodging getting impaled by said shifter since the ball flew off...his only injurys were scrapes from the briar bushes climbing out and up the hill
 
I usually drive with my hand on the shifter anyhow, but even when I don't it doesn't take any more time to get ahold of a Pistol Grip than it does a ball or T-handle. Correctly positioned, like the factory did, it's 100% natural. That's why I spent the time to get it right in the Dakota, not that I'll be powershifting it or anything. I've had four Pistol-Grip-equipped vehicles, including my Trans Am, and never once experienced what you describe, 69.5... even prior to correcting the positioning in the Dakota.
