Love the car and it's simplicity and forgiveness on certain functions......and finally after a year of chasing and correcting the overheating problem, driving the car yesterday in the country, where I live.

Again, lots of info that sometimes is misleading -at best. I suppose there is always that one person that can make the argument that oil will leak if it is parked on a steep enough incline however the biggest cause of oil leaking at a steep incline would be from an improperly adjusted rear main bearing clearance.
