Manual transmission, for real men only!

For those of you that need to shift, swap this into the car and be more manly than Chuck Norris,... you pansy!

See how connected to the vehicle he is. Just like when you're drinking, you're not doing it right unless you're using both hands!

That's just unsafe. Didn't even have 1 hand on the wheel most of time.

Yes, take both hands off steering wheel of an 80,000 lb truck to shift...seems smart!

Timmelsjoch in Italy . ... is much more fun with an automatic with paddels. With a stick you would drive 50% onehanded. Not save with all these U-Turns

I still can't figure out what the eff is going on here! CDL guys will probably know but the shift pattern is crazy. Looks like solving a rubik's cube to me.

Holy crap, who needs to go to the gym if you have to drive that thing for a living! Richard Simmons would be proud, he might even want to take a ride with you...

That's how it used to be on every truck and I'm sure glad that I don't have that on any of my trucks. I have driven a Mack with two sticks and that was hard enough.

Okay I watched again and then looked at comments and it looks like it is a simple 13 speed that he made a hell of a lot harder by switching from air splitter to mechanical.
