I would have to disagree with the DD one. Another meaning comes to mind first...

Re: List of Acronyms frequently used on CNTC
This is an automotive forum, RTFM is irrelevant on here.
It should be,
RTFOM = Read The F-ing Owner's Manual
or
RTFSM = Read The F-ing Service Manual

Re: List of Acronyms frequently used on CNTC
PA can be Princess Auto.
And as for FSM, it's not a bunch of atheists with their panties in a knot, it's a group of people fiercely opposed to the very strong Creationist movement in the States, where a literal read of the Bible is being thrust into the science classroom... FSM is simply a humourous attack on their plan - the argument being the same as the Creationists; namely, that a Flying Spaghetti Monster can be conceived as the Master Creator just as convincingly as a white guy with a long, white beard. So, why not teach FSM in the classroom, too?

Re: List of Acronyms frequently used on CNTC
I can't believe the most common acronym is missing off that list.
4WD = 4 (FOUR) Wheel Drive
Or, is it because it is so obvious that it was left off the list? Still no excuse!
PA can also mean, Public Address as in a PA speaker for a CB.
Oh sh!t, you missed CB as well!
CB = Citizens Band (Radio)
As for 'Flying Spaghetti Monsters,' stop making me frigg'n hungry! Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm, SPAGHETTI!
All hail the creator of spaghetti. Or was that the Chinese. I can't remember.
