    You aren’t coming back down to where six is in a ten speed are you? Should just be a standard H with top side splits right? If you are coming back to where 6 is on a 10 speed, you want to stop doing that. That spot isn’t oiled and it can also twist a main shaft.

    Looked just like mine.

    It's got pretty much the most ergonomic and well laid out interior for an aerocab that I've seen either in pictures or in person. It's a little goofy looking on the outside, and it's a Volvo under the hood, but yeah, I liked the mDrive I drove out in Brandon, way better than the older MP8 with the Eaton autoshift (never liked any of the ones I drove). The mDrive was smart enough to skip gears if it could, and would respond to different throttle input. FL Smartshift isn't too bad either.

    I wasn't a big fan of the older Mack interior though, felt kind of cramped, even compared to a Pete. But after spending almost two months in a 'Shaker, I'd still take the Pinnacle. At least the Pinnacle seat is lined up with the steering wheel, and doesn't wobble on it's swivel.

    Hauling chicken feed I mostly stayed in a pinnacle, rarely.got to drive a new anthem but when I did I loved it, way better laid out, plus the newer tech and features they put in. Wasnt much room for a giant in a day cab but I'd imagine a sleeper truck would be very comfortable

    To be honest, I know I’m the father. I just don’t know if my wife is really the mother.
