I usually only use the clutch to get the truck rolling.Occasionally, I'll miss a gear and have to use the clutch.Most times I just float them.But when you first start out learning to drive, use the double clutch method until you get a feel for your truck.

Well we had a meeting with safety at the indy terminal over the backing accident ... I told safety the whole story on how this happened and guess what ... I got assigned 60 additional training hours with the same trainer ... wtf ...

When I an done with training I understand that I will be asked to "grade" the trainer ...
Like I can expect them to really listen to what I think after what has happened so far!

I float for 99% of the time but a couple times a week I DC it to keep it fresh in my mind.
