Crawl under a Daimler some time. When it comes time to lube and fill
things, I sometimes wish I had something simpler, 1 drive shaft per
wheel, 2 fluid levels per wheel, gearbox, transferbox, steering box,
totally separate torqye converter, solid underside, etc...
However neither one has let me down so perhaps I'm better off.
