Steve,glad to hear that you made it home in one piece. Shifting,it will come natural to ya. You may watch your tach. That might help ya,if you're the type to watch the tach. I never learned how to use the tach when driving. Like they said,just smash on the throttle when you down shift. Sometimes you can over-rev the motor,and you have to wait for second,and slide it in when the timing is right. You'll get the hang of it,and you'll be gear jammin before ya know it. That is a pretty truck. About the girlies checking out the ride,sweet. 8) I like the chicken lights. Now all ya need are some 6" straights. Congrats on the new trucky.

Every scale was closed. I had my insurance in place and the dealer required a copy of my policy and then issued a temporary plate. I was passed by many police and no plate on the back and none bothered me. The plate was stuck to the passenger side windshield. I drove a lot at night, took naps and checked out all the truck stops. Everyone knew I was a newbie, not sure how, maybe cause I'm not 300 pounds??? YET!!!

Steve, your base plate goes on the front in a class 8 truck. One way I can tell if someone is a newbie is the big grin on their face, for no apparent reason, as they drive down the highway. :wink:

lol....I assume your talking about the mirrors on the fenders? I kind of like them and if I removed them I would have holes all over the place.

I like having mirrors on the fenders. It gives greater visibility and helps eliminate a blind spot. Nice looking truck. Is that the 76" sleeper?
