As for off-roading like that, I wouldn't worry about it unless you are for some reason slipping the hell out of it.
And if you are, would you prefer limp mode or your pressure plate coming apart?

I think the font they are using is the same type as the old Route 66 font which can kind of look crooked...

While I can see the similarity no other 6 in the whole of the displays use that "style" 6 add that to it being an incredibly useless feature ( that I want gone/never wanted) and on that only makes the cluster more busy....

I think of myself as pretty anal (and my recent thread probably confirms this), but never noticed the 6 being slightly different or maybe never cared enough to look.

Or you havenā€™t seen it because youā€˜ve never made it up to that useless gear

6th is only useless if you have 3.45 gears. He has a Rubicon and most likely uses 6th all the time like I do. Being 700 ft. above sea level on the flattest terrain you will ever see helps...

Yep, anytime Iā€™m on the interstate above 65-70. Iā€™m in 6th with the cruise setā€¦ The only gear I find useless is reverse, itā€™s geared way to damn high in my opinion.

While it might seem to be only a minor issue it brings up the question of.... If they can't get a simple font or alignment of a number correct then why should I expect them to get a major issue such as the clutch correct?​
They canā€™t paint for :lipssealed: and makes rookie mistakes with aluminum. So if the font is incorrect, doesnā€™t surprise me.

As a software developer who often scratches his head over UX (user experience) design decisions, I can assure you itā€™s not a mistake. You may not like the way it looks, but the team responsible does.
