Profile For Thomas W.

You know, I wish I had a solid answer on the synchronized and non-synchronized transmissions. I trained on non-synchronized trucks in trucking school and had a real hard time. I was used to synchronized in my cars and light truck. I've heard some people say all big trucks are non-synchronized while others say they are synchronized with some still being non-synchronized. I had a bad time of it as all my instincts were wrong for big trucks; especially downshifting. I think if ever actually do any trucking, I'm the type who will get a automatic transmission and skip the whole dilemma. So if there is a manufacturer who sells synchronized trucks, I'd love to know who they are. Note: I dropped out of trucking school due to family problems so I'm far from anyone to really listen to.
