Seriously though, does putting it into a fwd gear b4 rev. gear help? I don't encounter lockout of rev. often(maybe 10% of the time?) and this is the exp. I've had w/all manual cars. I just make sure I don't shift into fwd. or rev. while the car's momentum is going the other direction.

Yes, it does help. I read a really good article on transmissions once online (can't find it now) and it explained why. Something like when you place it in a forward gear first, it lines up everything better for reverse? Not sure. In any case it has become so routine that I don't even realize I do it anymore
