Abstract
A vehicle drive train includes an automatic transmission, which has an automatic shift mode and a manual shift mode. The transmission is operable in the automatic shift mode and also operable in the manual shift mode. An input device has a manual select lever. A controller receives an operator mode change demand from the input device and conditions the automatic transmission for operation in one of the automatic and manual shift modes in accordance with the operator mode change demand after a predetermined condition has been met. The predetermined condition is met when the pending shift that is in progress is completed.
