Route 66 in Northern Virginia. Friday moring. No traffic. On the big scooter. Rolling the HOV lane and having a ball. Slow poke holding up the flow. Go around. Blast by a deep red Ford Fusion Hybrid. He starts to keep pace with me. Hummm... I slow down a bit, still 10 over or so. He gets near. I take a closer look...
White strobes on each side of the rear plate (those aren't factory
) . Little stub high-frequency radio antenna on the decklid. Didn't take much more time to investigate... didn't get a chance to see if strobes were in the grill or at the windshield headliner.
Really, we've got to the point that law enforcement is using Fusion Hybrids as unmarked...
WTF

A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."
