Please do a video with tips and tricks on going down the mountain loaded at 77k. I’ve found your content not only informative but realistic and useful.

its fascinating that you have so light trucks in the us. full load here in eurooe would mean about 132000pound, or in certain areas of scandinavia even upto 264000 pounds fully loaded.

our roads were only built for 70k lbs, these 80k trucks are tearing up all the roads

This is where (plug-in) hybrid trucks will excell in the future. Giving you the power to go uphills and keeping your brakes cool going downhill using regenerative braking and not wasting the potential energy into heat.

I've seen some really bad trucker dash cams of inexperienced drivers, and was curious what you would consider safe to pass. Would you consider two truck lengths enough to give the trucker behind you enough room to make decisions, or still try and give three truck lengths if you can? Just curious since even for cars, they don't give truckers enough respectable space.

Is it not better to down shift a little earlier? I always do it around 1200 rpm if im going uphill. I feel it helps me keep momentum better.

The clutch actually works to help you change gears while moving? I have to match revs and shift without the clutch on my 10 speed.

What gear usually going up a hill?

@bigrigpro763 Жыл бұрын

Depending on the weight of the load, I average between 5th and 8th gear. 5th - 6th if I'm heavy and the climb is steep. 7th - 8th if less heavy and the incline isn't as steep. Many variables will determine the gear choice. -Power of the motor -How steep is the hill -How much weight is being hauled -How many gears does the truck have

You Are Northbound On "Interstate" "77" [not highway 77]. An Interstate Do Not Have Any Traffic Lights For You To Stop. Just Exits. A "Highway" Has Traffic Lights For You To Stop. 🆗️✅💯💯💯💯💯

An interstate is a form of controlled-access highway, both are valid.
