Heck, most manual transmissions are that way. I've only seen a dipstick on ATXs. Generally, you just put fluid in them until it pours out of the fill hole.

noe that i think about it your right steve, my 94 v6 cavalier had a dipstick but then again the only tranny fluid it would take was synchromesh too so thats not a very good example
