Double Clutch vs Floating - Swift policy?

My instructor taught me everyway to shift, We had a student who flipped out when instructor tried to teach them how to float a gear...

DMV requires double clutching it during shifting, So thats how I did it for my test. I will probably just serve my time while with a mentor. I will take in the good advice and throw out the bad and just drive how I feel comfortable when alone in truck. Safe truckin with no breakdowns will be my moto,

 

I heard from someone that Swift has sensors in their Trucks that lets them know if you're double clutching. Is that true?

 

Every new truck has sensors to record everything!

I looked as close as I could without tearing out the seat....no sensor in case you fart that I can find!

 

If true it is news to me. Been floating up down whatever for nearly every shift, There are times that you just have to clutch though.

 

Good to know. Not a really a big fan of double clutching.

 

I had time today to take a long look at some of the stuff on the new Q/C...found nothing that relates to clutch

 

I was told that Swift mainly ten-speeds but you are saying they mostly use nine-speed tranny's?

 

When I started in '81 we had 6 x 4 twin trannys and the clutch was for dead stop starts only. That was double bottom tankers in the oil fields of ND. That's how I drove my own truck OTR 'till '87 when I parked it to raise my kids. Now getting back on the road, the equipment has changed. It will take some getting used to!
