I just went home from a 13-Speed Volvo. And it's just a 400HP Cummins. But I love it very much! It basically utilize the engine with it's sweet spot (Best Torque Range)

PS: How to identify an 18 speed? The splitter (thumb) switch is in grey color instead of red on 13.

Thank you for all the insight. Sounds like it will be a breeze. Just was wondering how it all worked. Shifting in a truck is nothing like a four wheeler. I've driven manual all my life so that was quite an adjustment. Michael, I hope they don't put me in an auto. I enjoy shifting and feel like you would have more control?
