When did DeSoto begin to offer the push button automatic transmission?
1956
Hello, and welcome to the club. Can you tell us a little about your DeSoto?
Of course, Mr. Ryker is correct, as usual, the year was 1956.

It's Delightful, It's DeLovely, It's DeSoto!
I purchased a 1959 Firedome four door sedan. The seller bought the car from the original owner in 1978. The car is Cream and Red. I will add pictures next week. I took delivery of the car on August 7, 2012. I have been to several states looking at cars over the last several months. This car was listed in Hemmings on line classified section.
Welcome aboard! Post some pics when you get the chance.
Have a nice day
