When Lorelai brings Luke back his truck after the sleepover at Yale, he asked her if she kept it in "park". Much of this episode was about Lorelai learning to drive a manual transmission. There is no "park" on a manual transmission. In addition, when he is showing her a diagram for the stick shift positions, he refers to "reverse" and "drive" -- also not on manual transmission.
Frequent mention is made about Lorelei's lack of knowledge about and ability to drive Luke's truck with a manual (straight drive) transmission. When Lorelei returns Luke's truck he asks her if she left the truck in "park". Manual transmissions do not have a "park" position.
