Default Powershift

Rather than add to threads for those who have specific problems I thought it might be an idea to make a general thread for general discussion.

Here's an interesting video:

I'm not sure if it's exciting or depressing.

Why would or should it be depressing?

Exciting because the music was has its intended effect, the technology is awesome and there's neat photography.

Depressing because Australia is losing its own vehicle production to Europeans. I guess the issue of confidence in the product's robustness might be a factor for some.

It also reminded me of the video game 'Portal', where the player is up against the inhuman machine . . .

I found that really interesting. Also the one that followed it with a 3D animation of how it works -
