    I've enjoyed reading your blogs, including your wife's. For your recent 720S write up , I felt as though I was in the drivers seat. Great post.

    I just wonder why you don't date stamp them, even if in general. Regardless they are good reads.

    Cheers

    Thanks. Good idea on the dates. I have started adding them at the end of the articles

    If you're taking suggestions, I'd love to be able to click on the pics and have them enlarge. They are so nice, I tried to open to get better details. Enjoyed your entire site BTW.

    Unfortunately that is far beyond my limited tech skills. I did ask my tech guy but he hasn't been able to figure it out either.

    Glad you like the site.

    Great write up. My only question is when you hit 'dynamic'. You said 'handling' and 'transmission'. Are the active/dynamic modes different in the 720? The 2 dials in my 570 are 'powertrain' and 'handling'.

    In the 720, the “Active” button activates the Active Dynamics Panel. The two switches are Handling with an “H” on top, and Powertrain with a “P” in the bottom.

    You are absolutely right, the two dials are P-Powertrain & H-Handling. Mrs SSO calls "P" the transmission or gearbox and it just stuck in my mind. I have corrected it in the article.
