Obviously you didn’t read the whole post. But in any case, I would have thought in your state there’s one driving by you every 100 feet
I note that you're not doing your off-roading in a Cyber Truck.

The answer to that is I don’t own a Cybertruck…. My daughter owns one but she’s not into off-roading, but they do own a F-250 Super Duty crew cab that’s a dedicated overlanding rig.

A friend in high school had a '65. He would occasionally have to get out and beat the shifter linkage with a hammer.
I had the same problem with a 69 Chevelle! It was a 250 with a three on the tree. I miss that car! One day the limb broke off the tree. The part wasn't easy to find so I made it a three on the floor.
If I were to build a custom it would be a '69 Chevelle, 327, 5 speed Muncie, 311 rear end, grand prix bucket seats, burgundy with a black vinyl roof and baby moons.

Upgrade it with a GMC 305 V6 and an SM-420. No poop electronics, what's not to like?
