I love mine. Its awsome. I dont care if it looks like a manual, i love my Auto i wouldnt trade it for a 5-Speed anyday!! Nothin like a built Auto
And yes it does work like a regular shift, but you just ratchet to every gear. You have to pull back on the lever to get from Park to Reverse & Reverse to Neutal. All it really does is when manual shifting go from 1st to O/D and stuff like that. I oniestly wouldnt buy it unless you want it for looks or have a Street/Strip Valve Body so it can be put to use.
O YEH IT LOOKS A HECK OF A LOT BETTER THAN THE STOCK SHIFTER
