I just read something in the paper about automatic transmissions and I wonder if anyone can explain it. In a mechanic's column, it was suggested that after starting one's car on a cold day to put the car in drive first and let it roll forward about a foot before selecting reverse to back out of the garage. This is supposed to be easier on the transmission. Anybody know why?
