Taylor, Tx | FUNNY YOU MENTION THIS-I THOUGHT I WAS ONE OF THE ODDBALLS THAT USED LEFT FOOT FOR BRAKE. LEARNED HOW TO DRIVE THIS WAY BACK WHEN I WAS 12-13 YEARS OLD. GOT CDL AT 17 FOR FARM AND THEN MOVED ON AT 21 TO OTR. NOW BACK HOME FARMING/LOCAL FULL TIME JOB BUT STILL DRIVE FOR FARM, CURRENTLY HAULING LIQUID FERTILIZER. I HAVE ALWAYS USED MY LEFT FOOT FOR BRAKE AND CLUTCH WHEN STOPPING/STARTING AND RIGHT FOOT DOESNT MOVE UNLESS ON BRAKE PEDAL WHILE STOPPED AND LEFT FOOT HOLDING CLUTCH. IVE FLOATED GEARS SINCE I STARTED DRIVING, HAHA CANT DOUBLE CLUTCH WORTH A DAMN. FLOAT ALL THE WAY UP AND ALL THE WAY DOWN TO 1ST OR LO. LEFT FOOT ON BRAKE WHILE RIGHT WORKING ACCELERATOR MAKES DOWNSHIFTING EASY AND SMOOTH. | |
