What is the difference between drive 1 and drive 2 in a car?
Drive 1 locks the automatic transmission into first gear (preventing an upshift). Very good to use when parked or stopped on a very steep slope and you need to move forward and do not want the transmission to shift. Drive 2 locks the automatic transmission into second gear. This is sometimes referred to as a "snow" drive position, as it causes the engine power to be applied to the wheels much more slowly (via converter slippage within the transmission) minimizing actual wheel-spin when accelerating from a stopped position.
What are the name of cars that can be towed behind a motor home?
Any car could be. A 2wd drive car with a manual transmission can simply be put into neutral and flat towed. A 4wd vehicle with a manual transfer case can simply have the transfer case placed into the neutral position and be flat towed. Vehicles with automatic transmissions and vehicles which don't have manual transfer cases capable of being put into a neutral position (such as the electronically controlled NP233 or any all wheel drive transfer case) typically need to have the driveshaft(s) removed in order to be flat towed.

Why would a 1996 Toyota Corolla automatic transmission gearshift refuse to shift from park to drive with the brake pedal and gearshift button depressed after vehicle lost power?
There is an electronic component attached to the outside of your transmission called the PNP (Park Neutral Position) switch. This switch prevents the car from being started while in drive position. There is also a shifter lock mechanism and computer that kicked in when you lost power. This set of components work together to protect the engine, transmission and anyone nearby or working on the car - so they don't get ran over. - D_South

What does 'ATP'mean on the DASHBOARD OF THE Nissan XE 2002 vehicles?
No, the ATP light comes on when the transfer case is in Neutral and the transmission is in Park. It's there to alert the driver that putting the transmission in Park will not prevent the vehicle from rolling since the axles are disconnected from the transmission's park pawl. If the transfer case is not actually in Neutral, then it's just a sensor glitch. This light indicates that the automatic transmission parking function is not engaged. If the transfer control lever is not secured in any drive position while the automatic transmission selector lever is in the P (Park) position, the transmission will disengage and the vehicle may move unexpectedly. Shift the transfer control lever into the 2H, 4H, or 4L position when the warning light comes on.
