Default Automatic Gears - what are these symbols?

Ok, I need help, duders.



I know the last three are 'Drive' gears, but what's the difference between the white dot and the green dot? And what the hell is an L?

I have a 1966 Mustang, Automatic, inline 6.

Thank you in advance.

Alrighty, then... The issue remains unsolved. Tim was referencing a 1991 Mustang. We need a second opinion on this one, boys. Bring some flapjacks..., some red meat..., maybe some beef jerky... Yeah! Maybe even...some Piña Coladas... ... If you like Pee-nuh co-ladas... Getting soaked in the rain... Huh! ... *dances*

ummm, i dunno but there's one way to find out. Shift into L and drive. See if it shifts (i'm guessing it wont) out of first. Then try the green dot (probably your first two gears) then try the white dot
