One example is rolling backwards slightly and giving it throttle in forward.Rideandrepair, Lepton1 and AModelCat Thank this. -

What has been your previous experience in regards to how this truck was set up for shifting points? I understand that the transmission can be programmed to have higher and therefore smoother shift points. I say smoother, because then a driver is able to ease back on the throttle to allow the transmission to execute shifts smoothly without getting into lugging the engine.
I absolutely think that YOU aren't the problem here. It's the idiots that specced the transmission parameters.Diesel Dave, Rideandrepair and AModelCat Thank this. -

I said it before and I will say it again, the most likely cause of your drive shaft cutting loose is not your fault. It's most likely that the automatic was putting stress on it from hard shifts.
Thin necked pencil pushing bean counters shouldn't be allowed to get anywhere near speccing trucks.Derailed, ajp201 and Rideandrepair Thank this. -
Rideandrepair and Lepton1 Thank this.

The three most important things you should do in the event of a delay for ANY reason is:
1. Communicate.
2. Communicate.
3. Communicate.
You did that. You have no reason to worry.ZVar, ajp201 and Rideandrepair Thank this. -
