    JAD, definitely a whine. Usually when I time the tap late.

    I would whine, too, if you tapped it too late. You have to be on time with that stuff.

    There's just a lot of things to keep track of, and I'm supposed to be concentrating on driving, ya know?

    Did you just ram the stick into the gear? You have to be gentle with that kind of stuff.

    people forget that the shift lever is attached and just yank it around , up and down, up and down pounding on it...sooner or later youl get a fluid leak all over and depending where it sites, might leak on to your ball joints

    You need to focus. It takes a lot of skill to keep that focus going especially when your tranny is souped up with all the bells and whistles.

    Do you ride quietly or are you always back seat driving?

    Sometimes back seat driving is just necessary.

    If you need help driving you should turn in your man card. And asking for directions...forget about it.

    also she might whine alot ut you just have to keep slapping her around until she locks into place and takes it.

    You can do that driving a regular passenger vehicle, but do that while handling something that requires a CDL and it won't ever drive right again. Better to be gentle until up to speed and work smoothly between gears.

    Whew, thanks for adjusting for the tranny. I don't want anyone to get it wrong.
