Once again, I am limiting the acronyms to vehicle specific phrases (in other words, I'm excluding things like LOL, ROFL, etc.).
If you would like to makes jokes you can do so in the joke forum here: http://www.fordrangerforum.com/laugh-factory/ |

To revive a old thread here goes: TC-Torque Converter
MT-Manual Transmission or transaxle
RDR-Rear Differental Ratio
RPM-Revolutions per minute TCC-Torque Converter Clutch
