It took about a month to be able to do it reliably, down and up, after I was fully comfortable double clutching. It's helluva lot easier to float...
Your correct that I asked for opinions but your opinion included disrespect to anyone who doesn't think exactly like you. There's a difference...
I don't think I could do a 90 without feathering if I'm being honest. But 90% of 45's no feathering needed. I have to admit that 90's with an...
That was my mistake then. I believe all truckers should learn manual. There's no reason not too. In IL they only teach manuals in school. I...
Definitely not and neither are you. You just like to try and disrespect others. We are both truckers with opinions is all. Very different opinions.
Never hit a dock hard in my 5 years so far with a manual or AMT. I talked to a couple mechanics (company and private) and they always say don't...
I don't know how 5 years is me but your entitled to your own opinion. Look at your last post to me and figure it out bud. Let me help you. "I...
I'm a slow poke. On big curves and ramps I cut the speed limit in half, or on a 30 mph ramp I go about 15. I could care less about the NASCAR...
Android type. Its supposed to say state sherrifs office. You can't trust websites. They are often out of date. That's why I call every states...
Once I do my pre trip I have full faith in my equipment. If I see something I don't like then I call dispatch. My safety is paramount. I'd...
I have a microwave and hotplate with one frying pan. I'm regional so I'm out 5 days at a time. I have a an electric cooler that I store fruit,...
If your auto has a manual mode then use it to get your mind thinking about shifting again. Take 15 minutes each day and close your eyes and...
I have my conceal and carry license in IL. In all states I run I call each states Federal field office every 6 months to ensure that its still OK...
Again I'll let my bank account and the high 5 figures do the talking. Not sure you noticed but I started this thread and I'm a natural born...
That's exactly what I meant. I don't feather the clutch. I don't feel like having to be down for an unnecessary repairs or explain to dispatch...
I'm saying that I don't use the clutch to control speed when backing. Once it's engaged its engaged until I'm docked. I don't want to burn out...
I'll let my bank account know that making high 5 figures doesn't qualify me as a trucker because the company is putting me in an auto. Lol
LMAO. I hope that was a joke. Did ya get it? LOL
I have my Bachelors in Information Technology. I worked in IT for about 15 years. I got sick of companies restricting Americans pay while...
