- one thing I've noticed with my Rotary Dial: I don't even turn it back to 'P', with either Auto Hold, or my foot on the brake, I just open the door, if I leave the truck ON. Or, just turn the truck OFF.

The dial is totally electronic, so you're not really 'required' to TURN it back to 'P' to put it into park, if you don't want to, if you choose one of these methods, instead.
Your original motorized stick shifter did the same thing. If the truck was on and in gear, then opening the driver door or turning the truck off would cause the shifter to go into Park.

Hey, thanks for the order. It'll be in the mail tomorrow. I just got a 2nd printer to try to stay ahead. Not as popular as Manion, but I'm trying to keep on top of things.

Working on a version that doesn't have a cupholder but an AMPS mount so that people can install ball mounts or Dual-T mounts for car chargers, etc.

To be honest I really like the design that manion has better (because I don’t need the cup holder) but I like that your shifter location is much higher. 😁 so I’m kinda experimenting. Also I’m going to play around with yours and maybe see about painting it so it matches the other parts better. I’ve not painted plastic before so will be a learning experience.

No worries! Definitely not a one design fits all out there. Good to have options.
