It’s how you should shift and it’s even recommended by every transmission manufacturer. It’s the proper way to shift. As long as you know what the hell your doing, obviously don’t beat on your rig, you can float gears (shifting without clutch) and youd be alright. There’s rigs with millions of miles out there all original. Driver treats it well and floats gears nicely never to mess up the transmission. I’ve been driving for almost a decade now and always floated gears as well. Let’s face it. Just about every trucker who shifts floats the gears. I just know though using clutch properly while shifting keeps the transmission 100%

@@kyleheppell2064 it’s easier to shift without the clutch… a professional knows how to properly shift transmissions with clutch using. Plus transmissions manufacturers obviously recommend clutch usage while shifting. You shift a car with the clutch as well. Just that in big trucks, you can float gears in a car I wouldn’t do it… you probably could do it if your very very good, I never did and never will.

Yip, a real truck with a real driver👍 Lady trucker here, retired at 68 after 44 yrs on the U.K roads. Started driving back in ‘74 when most U.K. trucks had Cummins / Gardner / Rolls Royce engines and Fuller Road Ranger crash gearboxes. Trucks I enjoyed driving. When I retired I’d been driving boring Volvos Scanias Mercs etc, all with sleep inducing auto boxes and cruise control 😴. Wish I’d gone to Australia when I was young and tried out your road trains 💁♀️
