Dodge_Ram links to this page. In the section describing the SRT-10 version of the truck, it says it uses a six-speed manual transmission with a Hurst shifter, but the disambiguation page does not have a link to an article about what that is.

etymologic

[edit]

Shouldn`t be written that (the place name) Hurst derives from anglo-saxon, meaning woodlands, wood? See Wiki Sandhurst. 79.251.88.64 (talk) 09:34, 5 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

HURST -- "hillock" (especially a sandy one), also "grove, wooded eminence," from O.E. hyrst, from P.Gmc. *hurstiz (cf. M.Du. horst "underwood," Ger. Horst "thicket, shrubbery"). Common in place names (cf. Amherst). http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?allowed_in_frame=0&search=hurst&searchmode=none 79.251.88.64 (talk) 09:36, 5 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
