    Love your truck, Rob! The trailer is nice, too.
    I have a 1992 L9000 with an L10, 10 spd and jake brake. 23000# locking eaton on air.
    52 years of driving commercial vehicles.
    Keep practicing your down shifts using 2 feet and the Jake. Watch your RPMs as you bring the throttle up to catch the next lower gear. Left foot gently braking as needed . Just touch the gear hole gently as you stabilize the RPMs and you will feel the synchro begin to line up.
    A little bit like lovin your woman....all gentle touches doesthe trick!😊

      Haha I appreciate it. I’ve tried but I can’t use my left foot on a brake pedal to save my own life!

      Well that's OK. Maybe try slowing a bit earlier at the intersections to give yourself more downshift time. It really does save brakewear, and after all, that is why you installed the Jake.
      Main thing is to be comfortable though.
      Great content.

    What a very nice run for Lynn the ol' LN9000! And man does she sound good with a full load! Love it! Now, I'd like a video request done. Can you please do a super long, unedited in cab ride along video, with everything from start up, pulling out, plenty of runs through the gears, cruising, jaking, all that stuff? No music, no cuts, no talk, just pure engine and exhaust sounds the whole way! And make sure Lynn has a full heavy load on - perhaps you could put either the F450, the vintage camper, or even the Mack MD truck on the trailer for the unedited in cab drive so I can hear Lynn at her heaviest weight, with that L10 Cummins screaming and chugging along! Please, Rob, please do this for me ASAP - the sooner the better! And I'd like it to be as long as possible as well - the longer the unedited in cab ride, the better! Please, please let me know ASAP.

      Hey Rob, wanted to check in real quick. Have you done my requested video yet? If you haven't, when will it be done? You know I'm waiting anxiously for it! Please let me know ASAP.

      Lots of headroom, not much legroom!
