The shifter movement is a safety feature. Believe it or not, it is not good popping a transmission into gear from neutral at 2000 RPM. As to no park in the transmission, that might be just as well. We had to change enough of these transmissions as it was....no need to add stripped parking pawls to the reasons why. Most big trucks (although the LSVW is by no means a big truck) don't have park in the transmissions.


I have always disliked the Iltis, but compared to the LSVW, the Iltis was a chevrolet. (I will not use the term cadillac to describe an Iltis, no matter how bad the alternative comparison is).
