Continuity mistake: During the last car chase with Rig and Charlie, the climate controls on Nick's Yukon change.

Also, during that same chase scene, a little red light blinks on the dashboard which suggests that the vehicle wasn't even running to begin with as GM uses these as a "security" feature and they typically blink when the vehicle is off.
