    Golly, if anything, I'd want a shorter shifter. I don't think anyone else here rows through their gears because that's an odd thing to do. However, I do emergency downshift about once a year for things like... SUDDENLYAPACKOFDEER). Having a shifter long enough to punch my stereo into park doesn't appeal to me... already a pain to get stuff in/out of the box under the stereo while in park, too.

    If you feel lazy/cheap, maybe replace plastic knob with a leather-wrapped one and call it a day.
    Irridium spark plugs last 100k mi and work just as well as copper. Copper is a waste on N/A and only lasts 15k mi. Don't use Platinum.
    Use 195* tstat unless you can thoroughly explain why not; 99.9% don't need a lower temp.
    Almost any oil filter, ever, is of higher quality than ACDelco. Spend $6+.

    I don't row through the gears constantly, but once was enough to make me realize something about late 90s GM interiors.

    they're poop.
