Freightrain Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Perrrrfect!! You're really catching on quick. Before you know it you'll be two hand'n it!! Yup, watching the tach just adds to the confusion, unless you're working on downshifting. Your ear is your best friend. Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

Rob Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Yup. You didn't learn to ride a bicycle or tie your shoes without practice either. Hand, eye, ear, and feet coordination all take time to develop but once mastered, seldom forgot. Now that you have the basics down, further practice will refine the technique.Now with the second truck, you will drive quite easily. When the third one comes along, (and you heal from your wounds) you'll fit the title of "Master".Sleep with one eye open if anything that can be reconfigured into a sharp object remains around the homestead.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.
