The phrase "takes me back" means to remind someone of a past time or memory. Reverse gear in cars was actually one of the earliest features in automobiles! The first cars had to be driven backwards to back up, and the modern reverse gear mechanism was developed in the early 1900s to make backing up easier and safer.
