I've watched a video about the Puma on Youtube. Pretty awesome piece of armor to have on the field. In one section the narrator stated the Puma had an automatic transmission with six gears forward and six gears in reverse. That made me think about the movie 'Kelly's Heroes' when the character Oddball said: "These engines are the fastest in any tanks in the European Theater of Operations, forwards or backwards. You see, man, we like to feel we can get out of trouble, quicker than we got into it"
