Where is 6th gear at? Same place as low only with the range selector up?

We need a picture of the NO GO hole ,,,otherwise when you run out of real estate that's the big hole. Nothing else matter whether its 9, 10,15 ,,,no relevance
Bakerman Thanks this. -
It's supposed to be a 9 speed but I treated it as a 10.
The first time I cross the box and get into 5th high (*Which is the low in low range) the truck's behavior will tell me for sure if that was a good or bad idea...
To be fair. There is a metal transmission plate stamped with dots and numbers in black and white somewhere in the cab. THAT is what you go by. -
Ha Ha! I’ve got you beat! My wife has 3.

Yeah. That's sad, man. But at least she's there to cook and clean?
Many of us have nobody.

At the end of your "training" you don't know how many fwd gears you have?? Is the rest of your training this insufficient? Doesn't surprise me. And for the rest of you geniuses,reverse doesn't count.

You're so smart. Maybe you can explain why "Low" doesn't count as a numbered forward gear ... or does it?
-
I always count it as a gear. I know some folks don’t and that’s what makes conversations like this one confusing for the newer hands.
My 13 would be a 12 if ya didn’t count low.
