Wait there's people that don't leave their car in gear when they park it?  I do the neutral-wiggle because, honestly, sometimes if you use just one bit too much force to put it into neutral, it will slip into the next gear instead, and I like to make sure that hasn't happened before I let the clutch out. With a short shifter, it's not always obvious just from hand position whether you're in N or 4 or 6. Less so with 1, 3, and 5 in my car, though.

fridge corn posted:Most cars in the uk don't have em Everything I've got from Japan doesn't have a clutch interlock either, 1993 and back. I do use it sometimes, mostly when starting our land cruiser because it's diesel and giving it a few more seconds to run is always a good thing. You bet your rear end I'll wiggle the stick all day and always park it in gear with the parking brake on why in the heck wouldn't I????

davebo posted:Would you wigglers be just as happy in automatics that came with a free fidget cube? No because automatics are trash tier, we're in the realm of craft beers and bespoke cigars now bub and the manual transmission is always going to be better because of not-defined descriptors. The manual in the AZ-1 is a light, fruity affair with a cool ice-like bite that pleasures the senses. The transmission in the Land Cruiser is a oak-like woodcut timber feel, with a warmth that soothes in the hand.

My Prius C has a shifter that's much closer to a conventional automatic shifter than a prius joystick. It's all mechanical and interlocked to the brake pedal and everything. I can wiggle it side-to-side from D to the gate for B. At any time. Even while driving. I hope this bothers all of you.

I think the FJ Cruiser had a button to disable the clutch-ignition interlock. Honestly, I find it hard to think of a situation that would occur during normal driving where the interlock would be a bad thing.

I always wiggle and park manual cars (that I own) in neutral unless im on a steep hill. it helped that the handbrake was drum-in-rotor and had ~*~*drift-spec*~*~ shoes on it that would lock it up at like 3/4 tension though.

Sweet, looks like Mazda will be offering the 2019 CX-5 with the turbo-4 from the CX-9. https://jalopnik.com/mazda-finally-gives-the-cx-5-a-turbo-1829981976 quote:Mazda’s mid-sized 5-passenger CUV has desperately needed a more powerful engine since the first generation was introduced back in 2012. According to the 2019 Mazda CX-5 U.S. order guide, leaked to the world on Reddit, it’s finally getting the more powerful engine it deserves. By tossing 250 horsepower worth of CX-9 2.5-liter turbo motor into the CX-5, it might finally have the guts to match its sporty visuals. Got to pony up for a top trim level, but that'll add some needed oomph to the most "exciting" crossover on the market.

Didn’t someone in this thread say that the Mazda turbo engines have a lot of problems? I figure there’s got to be some reason they don’t already have low pressure turbos on all of them.

Firstly, those 2.3 Turbos were not Ford engines (at least, if you're talking the one out of the Mazdaspeed 3 and 6). Secondly, there do seem to be issues with the Skyactiv Turbo. Back when the CX-9 was the only turbo car in the lineup its reliability stats were far below that of anything else Mazda sold.
