Subject: Re: Which truck trans. for novice drivers?



I spent a little time in a couple straight trucks this summer that had autoshifts. As someone that was use to shifting a 9 & 10spds I hated the auto shifts. They never shifted at the points I wanted to shift. Both upshifted to soon & downshifted too late for me. I ended up pushing the buttons to shift instead of allowing the computer to do it. This was in short distances hauling hot loads of chemicals from our chemical dealer to my sprayer Anywhere from 3 miles to 15 miles. I would agree however, for someone just starting out the auto shift would be the simpliest.
