The marketing geniuses decided to call it a 4-speed.
There is no reason to use first every time you begin to move...
Except that it is FUN!

Interesting. Are you talking about automatic transmissions? I do remember autos having the 1,2,3 and D.

whitetiger, I see you are in the Northridge..do you go to the Sunday car meet at the Promenade Mall off Topanga? Happens every Sunday morning and the last Sunday of each month has the biggest turn out. Hope to see you there.

Didn't even know it existed. Thanks for the heads up.

Whoa guys ... give him a break! When I first got mine I shifted into reverse a few times by mistake. My old car was just push to the left and up for first. Camaro ... just don't push so hard. I got the big 'R' on the DIC and the ding ding ding. The guy behind me must have been surprised to see the the backup light on. Now that I'm used to it I am more gentle with 1st.
