Well Rocket, since it's a 4 speed then the gear pattern would be from 1'st to 2'nd to 3'rd to 4'th. Does that help any? :happy-very:

**** you rocketman

ive never even seen a 7 speed tractor, we dont even have them yet, and im suppose to know the gear pattern?

and me not knowing the gear PATTERN= me not knowing you have to put the truck in gear to move it?

makes no sense at all

He's talking about a pkg car, and trust me, you wouldn't want to drive a p700. You would never be the same again.

free at last.......
On a somewhat related point......has anyone ever used 1st gear in a pkg car? I don't think in my 25 years that I used it more than twice. And that was by accident.

Heck, my use of the clutch was limited to starting and stopping a lot of the time. Hard to believe that some drivers first experience with a manual transmission is behind the wheel of a UPS vehicle. I learned to drive and took my drivers license test with a manual transmission.
OK, so I'm older than dirt. But, by that definition, I'm betting so are a lot of you.

I also rarely if ever used 1st gear.

Your point about today's drivers not being able to operate a standard transmission vehicle is a good one and reminds me of when I was teaching my kids to drive. I had a Saturn with a standard and would take them to the parking lot at UPS on the weekend and let them practice and both are very comfortable driving a standard but both prefer automatics.
