  • This video is of a short drive using the Volvo I-shift. I am driving a 2010 Volvo 780 (VNL 780) with Volvo I-shift gear ratios 3:2. This drive shows how easy and effortless the transmission shifts through the gears using the Volvo I Shift dual clutch. The Volvo AMT Transmission offers great fuel mileage with "eco-roll". The manual shifting options allows you to choose your gears when you need to. This transmission is comparable to driving a car. The Volvo I Shift is the same as the Mack mDrive. Reverse is also great and offer zero lag between stopped and moving. When compared to the freightliner with an ultrashift, this is this transmission is a breeze.
    Check out my other video for a little more detail "How to shift Volvo I-Shift Tractor Trailer"
    Here are a couple links for more info about the Ishift models.

    Being an old school driver I’m trying to accept the concept of an automatic transmission in trucks.Being able to muscle the heavy tonnage has always been my sticking point.However in getting older and working in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic all these years I’m starting to see the value of them.🤗

    Looking to buy my own truck and what I am researching is the reliability factor of AMTs and full automatics. It' doesn't take a rocket scientist to know the repairs on an automatic will be outrageous.

    In manual will it stay in a high gear if you come to a junction and stop, or will you need to tap it down to 1st

    They have a fix for the seat belt yet? I drive these trucks in auto but manually shift. It seems to get up to speed a lot quicker. The hill assist sucks. And always have to feather the throttle.

  • @scottclayton6709
    @scottclayton6709 3 года назад +3

    Cool. What about the L on the back and the F mode when you press the top button in? What does that mean?

    • @natashas.3119
      @natashas.3119 Год назад

      I want to know about the L also! Have you figured that out in the meantime? Also, I don't think it's an F, I think it's a P for performance mode.

    Can you go from D to M while moving? Do you need M mode for hill climb or you just put in the D and let it do the work?

    • @gunnarottosson7525
      @gunnarottosson7525 5 лет назад

      You can put it into P mode if you are hauling a heavy load. That's all you need to do actually. And Yes you don't have to change it from D to M. Just use the knop on the left side to change gear.

    I used to haul milk in a smooth bore tanker. I wonder if this I-shift can handle that! I sure wouldn't want it, especially if I were in snowy or icy conditions. Having a manual with a kicking load would almost be a must.

    • @chrisgriffin5179
      @chrisgriffin5179 7 лет назад

      It can handle it, you can drive it manually, just push the buttons, it shifts like a paddle shift on a sports car... no jerking, just smooth...

    • @afcgeo882
      @afcgeo882 6 лет назад

      It can certainly handle it. Your manual tranny kicks everything around to begin with. A smooth acceleration would keep everything in place from front to back. Lateral liquid movement has nothing to do with either transmission.

      detroit ghetto , no he doesn't, tanks on that truck or only 100 gallons each with about 90 plus usuable, depending if you really try to cap them off or not.
      He had about 25 gallons give or take left in that truck.Split between both tanks so about 10 to 12 gallons in each tank. I had one for 3 years and almost have the title, best truck in my opinion.

      That's pretty much any company Today but Toyota seems to have better costumer service than others. But pretty much any company will screw you over for warranty repairs until so many people make it a lawsuit.

      Bhaha :( this reminds me of back in February when I hitched a ride with a guy who talked on the phone with one hand throughout the trip, and used his other hand to change gears/eat sweets. He was using his elbow to actually turn the wheel left and right.
      Never hitching a ride again.

      You've got to move with the times, Gramps. Automatic transmissions used to be crap, I'll grant you. But modern transmissions like the i-Shift are great. Besides, driving an 18-speed road ranger in the city sucks ass.
