Pretty wild huh? Once upon a time the gear shifts in automatic transmissions were handled by a hydraulic "computer".

Very wild indeed! Thank you for sharing that. Though, I don't even know what I'm looking at ! (*and don't say 'automatic transmission gearbox' :-p ~ I mean to say this is all foreign to me and while I can appreciate it, I certainly don't understand it)
Hydraulic fluid goes brrr, car goes vroom! That's about the extent of my understanding.
