    I like it because I'm learning a ton, but it's hard.

    TicTrainers are good, can be hard on ya but that's learning. Things are going good, just have to keep practicing

    Eh. Your going to grind and miss gears. Not that I've been doing this a long time but after 8-9 months I still grind gears occasionally. Usually it's between 2-4 downshifting but some times I'll go to upshift and go over to far.

    Be safe, follow the safe seven, and you will be solid. Backing and shifting become second nature to you after about a week or so of constantly doing it. And if your not use to stick shifts (maybe youve only driven autos) you will get into your car and instantly go for the clutch and shifter. I've driven manuals and automatics and I still do it when going from work truck to personal vehicle.

    Let us know how your training goes out on the road
     
    DocFrank Thanks this.

    Good luck with OTR training my friend. It's going to drive you nuts learning at a even faster pace but it's worth it in the long run. Once your behind that wheel solo, you learn even faster!
