I've got a 1965 Mustang with a cruise-o-matic transmission, I have a simple question... It reads


P
R
N
. on the left side of the . it reads drive going down
O the inside of the O is like painted green
L

now my ? is whats the O? probably a dumb simply ? but im wanting to know!

 

welcome to the green dot!

the first dot the car will start out in 2nd then shift to 3rd. the manual suggests this for starting out in snow or slippery condidtions.

the second (green) dot is where you'll normally drive. 1st,2nd 3rd

k?

 

ok but why would it be that way? wouldnt it be
P
R
N
O
.
L
?


should I drive with the car in the green dot or the first dot?

 

that would make more sense.

but thats the way it is.

green dot for normal driving. small dot for snow or slippery, Low for pulling stumps
