I did that coming through Ft McHenry tunnel in Baltimore Md. Lady in the toll booth asked " That wasnt you doing that was it?" Why no Ma'am not me in my big black KW with its Detroit roaring lol. Love it.

Yeah man doing a longhaul with auto tranny sucks. Manual is better in traffic too. From my perspective at least.

@truckpics Simpler way of explaining it, When you give it gas, the brake kicks off. When you let off the gas, the brake kicks in.

@truckpics go to any area where theres a intersection and alot of trucks (off ramps) and just sit for 5 mins, watch the truck jake to the corner, go around and when he's upshifting you'll here the jake kick in when he releases the gas. we left the jake on all the time in our ol mack dump truck.

Was wondering why a truck was loitering in the "fast" lane until I saw Australia in the comments

depends on a few things...your truck's specs, how heavy you are, etc
