There are two ways to start in first with the auto trans that came with my car. (1) manually pull the shift lever to low, it will start in first and shift to second, then you have to manually move the shifter to drive. (2) Floor the accelerator when starting out, there's a electric kick-down switch that engages and the trans will start in first gear. I didn't find either of these methods acceptable for normal driving.

When you drive don't you get three distinct shifts? Into 2nd, into 3rd and then into 4th? I thought that was the way they were designed.
