    Correct. So in the case of a 13 double over, 11th would be direct and 12 over and 13 double over.
    11th 1:1
    12th .75:1
    13th .5:1

    This is of course a dramatization.

    When I got to 30, it seemed that all kinds of people were inviting me to all kinds of functions to set me up with some woman. Everyone felt that I should be married. The thing was…

    One girl had two hands and 1 arm.

    One girl showed up in sandals, with 6 toes on each foot, toe next to the big toe hanging over the edge of the sandals onto the floor.

    One girl was attractive but sooooooooooooo DUMB that even Mom got a headache trying to converse with her.

    One girl had a tree stump ( it looked like a tree stump stump) growing out of the middle of her back, AND webbed hands.

    The last one showed up to my baby brother’s wedding. She was nice looking, but she just couldn’t ever, for a split second, SHUT UP.

    Charity cases. Yuckers!!!!!!! I did want to marry, but I don’t do charity.

    The people would get mad and accuse me of being too picky. Picky?…..

    That is a true double overdrive as I understand gear ratios. I’ve heard of them, but never seen one in a big rig transmission. If 12th gear is 1:1, it’s not a double overdrive no matter which way the shifter sits towards the dash.

    Slept in many when I was younger. Course I could double up and bend effortlessly then too lol. Never had a problem stretching out though. Just don’t try to get back in the cab very quickly….
