yeah I tried skipping 6th just because I was used to an 8. I was at 76k gross. it didn't like that at all.
The 13 speed is my favorite, I learned and trained on a 13 speed. Great for mountain driving! Not hard to learn either.
The 13 speed is basically a 9 speed in which you split the upper gears in half with a thumb switch on the side of the stick.
subject change again. #### I wij we could get out of this night shift cycle. I can't drive after 3 and I'd we don't start til 9 I only get 6 hours in. plus I'd like to actually see the places we've been.
Actually night shift (to a point) can be beneficial with your trainer. There will certainly be lots of that available when you're solo, but there is a different world out there after midnight and discovering it with your trainer can be a little more relaxing for when you get out there alone. And who knows? You may learn to enjoy it!
