I went to Schneider's training, and I fully rock at understanding the size and movement of my truck, but learning how to shift.....that took every ounce of concentration I had. I didn't hit a curb until the last two days of class- I was freaking out that I still couldn't shift.
I know I'm gonna get some comments on this....but I'd be on the road already in an automatic, but that doesn't make me a bad driver.
