    I got rid of the white color with the stripe, she is now jet black with chrome wheels! Also upgraded to a Cat 600HP and 18 speed eaton fuller! Much better :)

      That sounds pretty nice, aint nothing like the old cat engines, I have a cummins 570 in my freightliner classic xl, she is my new favorite truck mod. I'll have to try out the century for myself, the jake sounds like a beast on thus truck. ☺

    Hey jeff, when you're pulling heavy loads like that upon a hill you have to go in 1 LOW, or even make sure you gear down ( go back in the previous gears) or else you will start to move slower and slower on the hill. Remember, you have to be in the right gear to match the rpm that you got, and you'll keep damaging your like that if you keep going like that and continuously shuts off. Just telling you.

  • @Doggie504504
    @Doggie504504 8 лет назад +25

    Jeff, I'm 99% sure that you used a car behind you as chuck when you finally got up that hill. Good use for the sometimes terrible AI.

  • @19ScottMcRae85
    @19ScottMcRae85 8 лет назад +12

    On your truck when you kill it on an uphill like that. Best thing to do is start off in the lowest gear you've got. Also you're going to want to hit the gas at the same time you're slowly releasing your clutch. Keep your rpm in between 13-1500. This is what I gotta do for steep grades. Sometimes my truck is very close to the limit of 80,000 pounds.

  • @sbortz75
    @sbortz75 8 лет назад +3

    great job jeff...just a tip..u don't need to split all gears u can start off 2h 3l depending on load and then as u get going u can double up and down...if that makes sense... and your 100% right if u had a switch instead of just a button...and u can switch between h and L with just the rpms....ur doing great..that jack sounds bad ass!!

    It's a good thing you didn't start the series with this shift style, it might have put off some new to the game ppl. Turning into a how to shift series :) Wish the stock trucks would have the dash GPS and highly visible dash like the mods. Spent some of the begining of the week watching Pat's live stream, good to see you there. He's a trooper. Have a great rest of the week pal.

    Hey Jeff when I get stuck like that on a ramp or hill. I use the trailer brakes and drag the tires slightly. It usually works well.

  • @kingscorpion7346
    @kingscorpion7346 4 года назад

    Jeff, I realized that I haven't watched most of your series on ATS. A lot of the more recent I have watched but not the earlier ones, so I'm binge watching them, and I smile as you were excited about getting the new truck. Myself, I bought the game (because I saw you having so much fun with it, I had to get it too) and I only have an old Logitech NASCAR racing wheel that's over 10 years old (bought it at Fry's Electronics for $20 new, with 90 degrees turning either way). I'm saving money for a new wheel (thrustmaster with 900 degrees turning either way, WITH a gear shifter, and trackerir) and I can't wait to order it once I get the money!

  • @robertchamberlain723
    @robertchamberlain723 8 лет назад

    Don't worry Jeff, it took me awhile to learn the Fuller Super Ten, works very similar to what you are using. Is the weight mod the load and trailer weight combined? They seem a little high. When I pulled sea containers I usually had 40,000 to 45,000 lbs in loaded weight. By the way, try using the trailer brake on the ramp. IRL the valve is mounted on the steering column. It leaves your feet free for the clutch and accelerator. Happy Trucking! Bob

  • @joshmarkle4742

  • @alexrockwell7086
    @alexrockwell7086 8 лет назад

    Jeff some insight on your shifting question. I drive truck with a shifting pattern like that and an easier way they may help you is yes you can go from L to H by just letting off the acceleration. An easier way to go from say 1H to 2L is hit you HL switch before shifting to 2nd gear. It wont shift into L gear with out the clutch so when your in 1H and ready to shift into 2L hit the switch while in 1H and just shift to 2nd and it will go into 2L. Give that a shot and that should save you some time rather than shifting into N and then hitting the switch then going into the next gear. Keep up the good work i Enjoy watching all you Code Zero Gamers. Take Care

  • @c.crunch1124
    @c.crunch1124 8 лет назад

    I think that the trailer weight mod is actually putting your truck over weight. Also 52000 lbs is the max for most tandem axle trailers. Also I believe that the weight the stock game shows is cargo weight. 80000 Lbs is the Max weight without Over weight/demenision permits in the US. Here is some info to help give you a better idea on how weights workout on a semi.
    Standard tractor weight is 18000 to 20000 for an OTR tractor, 9000 to 13000 lbs for a trailer. Using the lowest weights for truck and trailer you base would be 27000 lbs. That would mean your max load could weight 53000. Which is 1000 lbs over trailer allowable weight.

    beautiful truck Jeff, and talking about shifting using high/low splitter, my buddy drives truck and that's how he splits the gears too by using low/high for each gear. He said he liked doing it that way because he had better control of his RPMs and it was less stress on the transmission. Also do you think it's the trackIR causing the camera to dip when looking left/right?

  • @greenmachine55
    @greenmachine55 8 лет назад +1

    Idk if you will see this Jeff since this is an old video but I didn't know there was a truck that shifts like that. I trained in a 2010 freightliner cascadia that you shift like a normal vehicle but you got to 5th or 6th gear you flipped the splitter and go through the next set of gears.

    • @jfavignano
      @jfavignano  8 лет назад +2

      +green machine55 yeah seems to be common with 18's, I know what you mean because I used to shift that way. This is a new concept to me.

    • @greenmachine55
      @greenmachine55 8 лет назад

      +Jeff Favignano me too cause I never Heard of that before. Have you ever drove a real semi before? I never got to haul actual cargo but I got to see what it's like to be a real truck driver by taking the driving course. When I my my ATS videos I plan on giving some tips I learned on how to drive a truck. The truck drivers rules of the road.

    It looks like you're using a 10speed, and if you are you're doing pretty much everything right. I'd consider upping to more gears when you get a chance. 13-18 if possible, that way when you're on a hill like that you have a little more low end grunt.

  • @MrDerekRobinson
    @MrDerekRobinson 4 года назад

    Watching your entire Playlist. I wish I would've caught these videos when they were fresh out. Lots of tips. One I didn't see anyone mention your load was 60 plus thousand pounds, which is over weight for the trailer you had and too much weight for that truck to handle. On top of that your trans gears aren't optimized for that kind of weight, because the gears are kinda long. Not much input on the engine

    • @MrDerekRobinson
      @MrDerekRobinson 4 года назад

      And so thats why it seemed like you had so much peddle travel required because long gears equals long rpm travel duration just to get out of low ram to grab good torque. 8 years driving semis

    @ericl1627 8 лет назад

    hey Jeff, came for American truck have watched a few lspdfr's liking it more and more. do have a comment that weight mod yes dos make truck act better but looked at wieghts. I drive a spread axle your looking at a top weight of about 51000. I'm allowed 12000 steer 34000 drive and 20000 on both trailer. but can't exceed 80,000 total weight. your normal truck non spread like when I drove for werner. your looking about top weight of 45,000 trucks around 30,000 empty if I use to get a load over 40,000 use to make sure to scale it.
    as for shifting sounds like your driving a super ten if it's just a 8 speed (as you said you shift 4 times) the 8 speeds I drive you shift 4 then flip range select then do 5-8. so I'd assume you do 1-4L then 1-4H. if it's a super 10 or something like then you do split every gear. hope didn't confuse you but on RUclips you can look up straight 8 shift or super ten shift and there are videos in real life.
