Not sad, just realistic. Automatics are simply better for offroad driving. Manuals are inferior in most offroad situations, and manual transmissions in a truck aren’t the kind of fun that they are in a sporty car.
I much prefer an automatic when driving offroad. It is much easier to creep over obstacles while left-foot braking. On the beach, an automatic is easier to start up from a dead stop without spinning the tires, thus reducing your chance of digging in and getting stuck.
Could it be why most atv’s have semi-auto gearboxes ?
In all honesty it sounds like the “best” transmission for the low speed offroad crawling would be the AT with manual gear selection, a la flappy paddle slushbox.

I could be all cynical and suggest that Chevron recognised the memorial was actively cared for for over a decade, recognised the risk to their public profile of demolishing it (even when they didn’t know the carer) substantially outweighed the cost of preparing a permanent alternative AND recognised the potential…
I’m not crying shut the fuck up you’re the one who’s crying.
Not sure if being troll, or just didn't get the joke.

LOL it's just water. Dihydrogen monoxide = H2O. Pretty good troll by the OP, very tongue in cheek.
Thanks a lot man! You just saved my life. I shall share this information with everyone I know, to make sure that they are not adversely affected by this nasty chemical compound. Wow, I am impressed by your knowledge and your willingness to share a part of it with the world. As my brain goes through each sentence in…
Hilarious! It will be entertaining to see how many people don't get it :)
He got some of you....haven't seen this since high school chemistry.
For everyone saying rinsing is the answer, every time you rinse you are exposing yourself to DMHO.
