    Good luck Bob
    Pretty sure you have to double clutch everywhere to pass CDL.

    Im one of those unless the 13 has a half gear inside a gear. The hammer off and on takes care of those. I can also float when am in a hurry to get into whichever gear up or down.

    However I just DC without thinking, pedal goes just far enough to break power to the drives. I prefer my pedal loose at the top.

    Do you mean Columbia? There was no Cascadia in 2004.
