So what is the difference between a Straight 6 and a V6? Sorry, i'm still a newbie at these things, but would love clarification.

AC compressor that does not work, oil leaking from the head, noisy everything (my exhaust drowns it out well though), stupid door panel clips, and the idiot in the passenger seat saying "can you roll down the window".

Mostly I just don't like the rear hatch I wish it was more like a truck tailgate with a topper on top splitting in the middle. I know, no big deal and really doesn't affect anything useful. Wouldn't change how the vehicle wheels.
