Actually was four, had to put in reverse, but “three on tree” was my first learning with a manual T.
Never heard anyone say “four on the tree.” My '69 Chevelle and '77 Corvette had 4 speed Muncies. No one called them 5 speeds to include reverse. My '79 Firebird had a 4 speed Saginaw with an electric overdrive from a '53 3 speed Chevy pickup. Overdrive never works in reverse and no one counted it.

Neither did I. Just pointing out the true technical shifting of a “three on the tree”. Where was reverse on most of them?
I guess you’d argue about “4 on the floor” as well? I rebuilt power and drive trains for 35 years, nothing technical about your description.
Damn Bob…seems you just want to yell at clouds about most everything. 
My statement was that referencing that a “three on a tree” is a manual shift on the steering column that was a 3 speed (gear) shifting for forward gears. I just stated that there was a 4th gear for a reverse mode.
Most all that I drove the 1st gear was in the lower left position, 2nd in the upper right, and 3rd in the lower right. Most of the time, Reverse was pulled far left and up., opposite of the lower left first gear.
Is this different from what you remember?
up and in on my plymouth and fords…

So, you’re a cloud now! I envisioned you as a deep fog; not quite elevated to a cloud yet. But I guess you can call yourself whatever you want. I haven’t even raised my voice yet. THIS IS YELLING!
