A truck is a tool. You learn how to use it properly, or you find another line of work.
I drive a Volvo with an automatic.
I am rarely loaded below 78,900lbs.
The truck came with a manual.
I read it.
I admit I'm still learning how to get the most out of the trans, but the book explained a lot.
I have no complaints.
If they put it in the shop tomorrow and gave me a manual, I'd go drive it.
Again, it's just a tool.
What if it Snows?

However, I'll give Tibbs and the rest of you O/Os a pass on this, because I can't think of anything ####tier than having your own truck for years, then having to use a Penske rental for a month or more....

The crapcadia I am currently piloting has the DD15 with the DT12 it gets decent fuel mileage. I have nothing else positive to say about this combo the shortcomings would take a wall of text to list. I don’t wish anyone to think X1 is back.

It's been crazy on the ITR and OHTPK today. So much so, I'm shutting down now, and starting again at midnight.
Besides, I had a 14-hr day yesterday, and drove out my full 11.
And I know that's "all in a day's work" for a lotta you guys, but those long days really knock this old kid back on his heels, anymore. I don't snap back like I used to....Friend, 77fib77, Rideandrepair and 10 others Thank this.
