Yes. But usually you can hold the trailer knob while you pull the yellow and only get tractor maxis on. Not this one.
94 Peterbilt. When you pull knob to set tractor brakes, trailer maxis come on too. Even if you hold trailer knob in. You don't actually have to...
Yes, I used to use that gear sometimes going around a corner, saved going into low range. Just had a bigger rpm split than going down to low...
This one has L, plus 1-5, then it does a range shift goes to 6, and sounds like it splits the top end, like a 13.
You don't usually count reverse. EG 18 speed=18 fwd gears, 13 speed = 13 fwd and so on. This thing has 14 fwd. Just thought I'd see if anybody was...
Nope. It's got 14 forward and 2 back.
First time driving an autoshift in 49 years of trucking. Gotten used to how to work with it. What I cannot figure out is how it has 14 gears. 1-13...
Ok. I'll try that. But nobody has actually answered my initial question, is it possible the truck came with only tilt? Or is there always...
Maybe I'll hook a come-a-long on it, with a chain out the window and around the roof. Actually did that one time on an international v liner to...
Driving an 07/08 FL Cascadia. Wheel tilts fine using foot pedal but can't get it to telescope. Did some of these come with only tilt?
@shatteredsquare . Thanks for that! I am getting used to it. I just leave it in manual all the time. That works well and I no longer coast up to a...
With the freightliner smart shift, can you start off in L and then go into D on the go without hurting anything? It starts way smoother in L with...
Ditto on the F150. Last December I found a 2003 150 with 5 speed and manual t case. I love 10th generation f150's. This one drives and shifts like...
Here's a thought to consider. A wise old mechanic once told me to watch what I greased the slacks and cams with. Use too heavy a grease in cold...
As I said, I've driven nothing but manuals since I climbed up into my first truck back in '73. Now as a semi-retirement gig I am doing some part...
Haha. Ok. Thanks!
@uncleal13 . Any idea? I've seen dash pics of other trucks with this so it's not unique to this truck. Somebody must know? Can you all see the...
Here's a picture.
Driving a 2010 Columbia with smart shift. On the dash is a black box with a directional keypad plus a half dozen other buttons. I've seen pics...
