    Prindle?

    Never heard that before. But it makes so much sense. It's my new favorite word. Still hate automatics, but love that word.

    Prindle. So gay.

    ok...?

    Since the thread is here, I thought that was a made up word to describe the order of the gears?

    Revers

          Might be spelled PRNDL, but it's certainly pronounced Prindle. It's a wonderfully fabulously gay little word. I feel like singing in a Disney musical. Prindle!
