Actually no. I have been working on cars and trucks for about 20 years im very mechanically inclined. Just a lot of people say tractor trailers are a lot different so im asking these questions. I got my drivers license back in 95 learning with a manual.

Basically i wanted,to know if its,like backing a car when in reverse you gotta,give it gas but once you let off the gas it will stall if the rpms drop too much then you gotta push the clutch back in to prevent that.

That was my one question.

No if you let off gas it will just roll, but that only cause your speed is low enough
