Oh, I'm perfectly aware of all the benefits of IRS.
I simply don't care.

They can call it a big dumb live axle all they want, I'm not offended.

Give me the toughest, simplest, most durable rear end there is - I'm done.
There will be plenty of other maintenance issues on any car, I like to eliminate as many as possible.

I suppose I could always buy a new Vette or some European exotic, but that's not my style.
An American V-8 in a tiny car is all I'm really after, cheap, simple and fast.

As a crane operator for many years, and a private pilot, I've seen too many cases where the problems of overly complex machinery are not worth any perceived advantage when it bites you on the ass in a spectacular fashion.

I may be on a computer, but I'm a stone tablet and chisel kind of guy....
