ABSTRACT:
A shifter for controlling a vehicle transmission includes a base and a shift lever movably mounted to the base for movement between a plurality of gear positions. At least one of the gear positions comprises a PARK/NEUTRAL position having a PARK and a NEUTRAL control feature. The shifter includes an input device configured to switch between PARK and NEUTRAL upon actuation of the input device by an operator. An indicator on the shift lever indicates if the transmission is in PARK or NEUTRAL.
