This seems confusing as hell. I rather have a full manual with clutch pedal or a full auto with no clutch pedal, less chance for damaging transmission.
This atrocity should not exist. I've driven one of these and did not like it. It should either be full manual or automatic. Personally, though, I will always stick with a full on regular manual transmission with an actual shifter stick.
My 18 speed Fuller automatic is the worst transmission I've ever had in a truck. It's a tri axle dump truck that I use on site quite a bit and its so damn harsh and slow to shift from D to reverse that it makes the truck almost undrivable. It holds the first 3 gears too long and revs out to an almost ridiculous degree. It inexplicably downshifts at low speed while I'm coasting without my foot on the brake and just about puts my head into the windshield. Reverse is comically harsh and in-precise....shift into reverse and give a throttle input but the truck goes nowhere....2 seconds later (even while giving it the most minimal amount of throttle possible) The truck picks up and takes off in reverse which makes it almost impossible to inch the truck back in reverse to, for example : back up to the edge of a trench to dump a load off an edge. I find myself screaming at the truck multiple times a day because It will not even remotely do what I'm asking it to. I'm an experienced driver btw...The trans simply doesn't cooperate. Just an awful design.
(how) do you back to a dock with a Kenworth t680 semi auto magic, when the dock leans away from the dock. push on both pedals and feather the brake pedal.
Manual is fun but dangerous if you mess up (I'm a rookie). Automatics are boring and makes you lazy but is easier in the knee. Both has its pros and cons but the indistry is going auto for a reason
I know this is an old comment, but the industry is going with autos because this new breed of "drivers" are stupid. They can't drive a Toyota Camry, but these mega carriers put them in a truck.
I have the same thing in my 2000 century class. But every now and then, when I come to a stop and its in 2nd gear, then I try to pull off again she won't move or go to 3rd gear.......can I get some insight?
I recently had an applicant try to apply for a Driver's job with me. He got really Shitty with me because I didn't have any Trucks with Automatics. It told him real truck driver s drive Manual Transmissions.
some people are not good with manuals just because people feel more comfortable than automatic doesn't mean they're lazy I personally suck at driving stick shift and would rather use an automatic transmission that I'm comfortable with, rather than get in an accident because I don't know what I'm doing does that mean I'm lazy?
@@DylanFarstveet So if you wanted to be a Trucker you have to show trucking company that you know how up and down shift . If you did not do this you would not get hired another show your skills.
@@JavierGarcia-zt8ly I just like watching videos about trucks I can't get a truck because you need to have perfect vision for that and I have a restricted drivers license for corrective lenses so I couldn't be one anyway
@@DylanFarstveet I have been a TRUCKER all my life. Since 1979 and when you would apply for a trucking job the owner of the trucks. Would take for a road test if you didn't shift gears right you wouldn't get the job. Another words they didn't want you to tear the gear box. They wanted to see your skills Now days any one can drive trucks with the automatic transmission.
If it's an automatic transmission why is there a clutch pedal? Seems like the person really know what they were talking about with the automatic transmission.
This is so weird. I have an eaton autoshift transmission in a 4900ex i drive, but there is no clutch pedal. The “automatic” transmission compresses the clutch and moves the gear into place, and then you can feel it release - feels JUST like you are driving a manual. But i don’t get why this one shows a clutch.
Seriously what person came up with this idea? Hands down this is about the stupidest thing I have ever seen.! Reason why there buying it with automated is bcuz they can't drive a manual transmission, if they could they would be driving a manual semi- truck.
this shit is harder than my old 13 in the 357. boss just got two 367’s with these. can’t feel the truck anymore.

They will hire just about any dummie outhere!
Can u fan the clutch for reverse without harm?
Weird. I never seen a clutch in a automatic like shown in this video
question How many gear are in a auto shift transmission 5 10 13 how many please explain that
9,10,13 & 18spds.
I have the same thing in my 2000 century class. But every now and then, when I come to a stop and its in 2nd gear, then I try to pull off again she won't move or go to 3rd gear.......can I get some insight?
Manual mode or throw it in neutral then use brakes to stop, then just start out like u normally do
does it downshift automatically if ur not touching the throttle
Yes
I recently had an applicant try to apply for a Driver's job with me. He got really Shitty with me because I didn't have any Trucks with Automatics. It told him real truck driver s drive Manual Transmissions.
LOL...Did u hurt his vajj?
Your gonna get from time to time but those type of drivers aren't smart anyways.
That's BS
Now its an automatic, why would one put it nuetral and automatics dont have mamual clutches so would there be a clutch pedal at all im these rigs!!?
Because semi trucks don't have a park gear
Autos have tourqe converters so their isn’t a clutch pedal, that’s why the brake is used to start in an automatic
To start off in gear*
You can lead a horse to water but you can not make it drink use manuel transmission . Do not be lazy.

@@JavierGarcia-zt8ly so basically to be a truck driver they force you to do something you're not comfortable with?

Only for pulling away if in manual mode and keeping the truck stationary at stop streets/robots

Each person is different but at the end of the day what keeps people together is their respect and love for each other.
