only 5-10 in the last 3+ years have been non-ISX trucks, and there are many good reasons for this.
Scooter, most anyone will tell you that the Eaton 13 is wasted in a 60mph truck. But MAY is my boss, NOT Eaton. So they say 1370, 1370 is it. Not to mention the soft rev limiter is 1360.
The engine brake also makes it's most 'power' in the 1800-2100 range, but try and use it up there, and see how quickly you get a nasty-gram on your QC lol
Of course hills etc are a different story. They can and do lok at all that and take that into consideration.
As I just told my student...there are NO hard/fast rules of shifting, only guidleines. uphill/downhill, bobtail/empty/light/medium/max load....all will require a slightly different approach to shifting.
Western 11 MILES? GOOD INFO INSIDE!

You made my point
There's a big difference between the letter of the law and the spirit of the law. My experience at May is as long as I produce the desired results, noone bothers me, except if I break the law of course.
However, if you want to shine BW shoes every time you go into Brooks, more power to you. JUST KIDDING!

Great! My first truck at May got to over 500k before they put me in something else. I felt like all the "bugs" were worked out and it could easily go another 500k
