    You'll be pulling an empty so there is no real need to split. Heck at the phoenix orientation they told us not to split the high range so we just drove it like an 8/9. Basically same as 10, except instead of going from 5th to 6th you go from 5th to 7th (or what would be 7th in a 10 speed).

    ok cool i can do that easily instead of splitting gears ill leave it in low and just go from gear to gear same down shifting didnt know if you could do that in a 13 speed but like they say once you think you know everything about this job you better find something else to do.
