the knob of a 4 spd on the floor, or rest it on a console mounted
auto tranny...
The CW had lots of reasons, though I suspect the "by wire" auto
trans of today would feel no ill effects. I do try to keep from
"riding" or resting my hand on my Vette trans, and if I catch myself,
I can "feel" stuff going on through it. Fwiw...
I'm with AznM, however: it is an odd design, imo. Yes, I could get
used to it; I'm getting used to limping with my bad hip, too.
