    I can’t see him getting out of the yard. Not with his load still intact anyway. Or his pride, or his job.

    Its pretty hard to stall the engine. I did it once and that was because I had a brain fart and stuck it in 3rd over instead of 1st direct lol.

    I would feel for the op up until he told them he had experience in a manual.

    On my application, it’s asks
    What type of transmissions have you driven? 8LL,10, 13, 15, 18.
    I’m surprised they didn’t ask what experience with what type of equipment and how long?
