I did a search and it returned nothing, maybe my wording was in correct. Dose the automatic gearshift selector light up, the other dials do.

I was wondering the same thing. I guess they figured people would look at the speedometer cluster Instead.

Yes, but it's already so dark inside, the lights would be a good visual, because a lot of people still look down at the shifter.

My E450 based RV shows the gear on the screen in front of the driver. I wish the Bronco did that, especially with a 10 speed.

Switch to manual mode by pulling the shifter back one more step (temporarily) to see which of the 10 speeds you're in. I've done this by accident and wondered why there's the odd number on the instrument cluster.

@Red Dawn - you're not the first person to inquire about that. After a while you'll 'feel' where the shifter is and then will have to confirm by looking at the (very busy) dash - lol.

Yep, I've seen that. The E450 shows it when you are in just regular drive mode. It really helps when pulling a short but steep grade to decide if I want to let it top out in D or if I want to force a gear shift. The point being it would be nice if it was done all the time.
