And longevity.
I had one plow truck with over 300,000 miles of service.
That's pretty hard duty. (BTW, that's about 500,000km.)
And in the good old days, even the front axle was solid,
which made alignment much easier.
How many miles (or kilofurlongs) on it so far?
My 1960 Ford F100 pickup had only toe-in to align.
(Solid axle on leaf springs.)
And handling was great....it rode like a truck.
It's the same here. I got mine early only because I work in the healthcare field. Everyone at work got it at the same time.

I’m sorry @Revoltingest but I lost some respect for you today. No need to be quoting Pee Wee
Only 35,000km, not had it very long.
The puggot has a few more, close on 300,000km, that's torsion beam

First...the fact you had any respect for @Revolitingest in the first place....will likely throw him into shock....
Second......

In one of my stints as a hiring manager, one question I always asked a prospective IT employee was: "Someone comes to you and says that 'everything is running slow'. What do you do?"
No one ever answered "clobber the idiot" but I would have chuckled if someone was that honest. What I was looking for is someone who would know that anything and everything could cause slowness and have the tool set to figure out where the problem lay.
And, yes, I too had to joy of people telling me what to do without being able to describe the problem in more than the vaguest of terms.
One of the reasons I love my wife is that she learned to first STOP. Second tell me the exact error message of symptoms or ask me to look at it when the problem was visible.
She's much superior to some who can not or will not learn rule 1 "If you find yourself in a hole, STOP DIGGING".
Nah, right first time, i suppose you guys can't help living in the bronze age.
Interesting, the us military uses real distance of km or klicks

For some reason, the back of my ankle feels like it has a cut on it and had me limping around from the pain of that and a soreness coming along with it.

Interrogate this person until I know what the problem is, and then restrain the urge to clobber the idiot. I assume this because it is IT, it is customer support, the two combined cannot bode well for sanity at the work place.

Believe me, some of us do want to bring the nation up to par so we can communicate with a unit of measurement that makes sense, always and regardless, nothing arbitrarily based idiocy if you don't know where it comes from, it is easy, it is simply, and keeping things simple amd simplifying things is the god law of math. Thus god demands death to the Imperial system.

None. Even under bright LED lighting, there is nothing but this pain that set in over night that I am unable to explain.
Mine did not look that pristine.A 1960 ford...F100......rode like a truck...... I'm shocked.....

It led a rough life as a part-time tractor.
