      They really shift differently. I have a 54 Mercury and my friends have a 55 Oldsmobile, 55 Buick, 56 Packard and 62 Buick. You really can tell the difference in shifting between a Ford and GM. Ford is more direct and has a bit more harsh suspension. GM is in my opinion a lot more comfy and floats more. Oh and you can really tell the difference between a 55 Olds and 55 Buick. The 55 Buick only has 1 gear so it doesn't shift. The Oldsmobile has 4 gears wich it bangs through (sometimes you end up with your face in the dash)

      If you've ever driven a car with a Jetaway Hydramatic you'd understand. The Roto-Hydramatic was even worse. Would be poor fodder for this show, as soon as the trans dumps into second gear and the engine lugs, you'd know immediately.

      @@57Joe Really? The roto-hydramatic was even worse? You'd think they would improve after some time. But the 55 Olds with the hydramatic really shifted bad sometimes. It would hold the gears for far too long and dump you into the next gear. If you didn't watch out you would end up with your face in the dashboard. My 54 Mercury shifted so much better... and tomorrow I'll go look at a 64 Cadillac Coupe Deville with a turbo hydramatic. I hope that thing will shift a lot better though...
