Default Re: Yep. They Gotta' Go

I have a Dodge Charger with the monostable shifter. I like the car a lot, and over 3 years have had no issues with it. The eight speed transmission works well and it gets great mpg, but I really dislike the shifter. There is no tactile feedback which increases the risk when shifting of missing your target gear. Of course, looking at the indicator on the dash will clearly show you. This is the only car that I've had concerns about what gear I’m in. To really understand the shifting situation it requires driving one of these for a while to experience the problem when you think you are in park, but you are in reverse, or the other way around.
