Steve,glad to hear that you made it home in one piece. Shifting,it will come natural to ya. You may watch your tach. That might help ya,if you're the type to watch the tach. I never learned how to use the tach when driving. Like they said,just smash on the throttle when you down shift. Sometimes you can over-rev the motor,and you have to wait for second,and slide it in when the timing is right. You'll get the hang of it,and you'll be gear jammin before ya know it. That is a pretty truck. About the girlies checking out the ride,sweet. 8) I like the chicken lights. Now all ya need are some 6" straights. Congrats on the new trucky.

Did the lizards offer you a new drivers discount.? lol Steve, your base plate goes on the front in a class 8 truck. One way I can tell if someone is a newbie is the big grin on their face, for no apparent reason, as they drive down the highway. :wink:

I like having mirrors on the fenders. It gives greater visibility and helps eliminate a blind spot. Nice looking truck. Is that the 76" sleeper?
