With my little hands I would need a third hand to make it just right.

I wasn't really thinking about it when I typed it. Just the first thing that came to mind compared to mine. I mean big is big ... I still like his tho.

Nah, it was funny, hah.

I just couldn't stand the reach for the stock shifter—I felt like I was leaning forward for it. And then thinking that it'd sink a little lower still with a Barton or other short-throw...

But with the longer throw, do you lean more for R,1,3,and 5? I guess height makes up for it?

Not that I've noticed. It's comfortably within my palm in R, 1st, and 3rd. I may have to reach for 5th a bit if I'm sitting weird? I'll pay closer mind to it on the drive home today and report.

I would say something about going black but as a straight white guy it feels weird...

I like that too, I was gonna get a pink one but couldn't find the pink that I wanted and I don't know how to paint mine pink. I can't take it off anyway, I put too much loctite on when I replaced it.

Ouch... I did the same when I first put these on. Who knew blue loctite could be so resilient.

I managed to crack and clean mine again with... a lot of patience. And two strap wrenches. 😂

White Madness would hook you up I'm sure but kind of moot if you can't get old one off lol.

It's all good, I'm good with whitey. Maybe my next car I'll do a pink one.

Y'alls ain't right 😂
Yet it was completely expected lol.
It did cross my mind last night that SOMEONE would go for it... lol.

"Big is big." Are you baiting us at this point? :crackup:

How did any of you expect anything different is beyond me. :D

I do get pretty quick with my responses, I just didn't expect to actually be the first one to have the golden phrase inserted, thought about 4 people will beat me to it... :)
