Greyhound Bus Lines called this the "Americruiser" which I rode many times between Phoenix AZ to Manteca CA in the mid 70s to 80s.

All he is doing is dipping the clutch a bit just helps it mesh a bit smoother , helps if you’ve just jumped in a different truck ‘ they are not all the same

This video almost made me cry, We had a few in the fleet in NT, I love driving them half way to Darwin, changed driver at Dunmarra Roadhouse, pick up the return next day..We also drove them on tour down to the Rock...I felt like the king of the road...very powerful and so smooth...pax loved them also..Ron King and John St.Clair took over the business, I guess since the MC'8's were aging they replaced them with Austral's (Domino's), they were nice to drive, but I missed the MC8's....great bunch of drivers then in the 80's...

They were really good coaches and workhorses. I worked For Stateliner Greyhound in Adelaide SA and we had many of them. They were great to drive and the exhaust brake was pure joy to listen to.

Your actually meant to use the clutch when changing gears in a roadranger gearbox, there is a video on youtube put out by roadranger corp on how and when to use the clutch when changing gears in a roadranger

I worked for Ansett Pioneer as a "Coach Captain" and when I first started there were still a few MC7's in the fleet, however they were fazed out fairly soon when the second batch of MC9's arrived. I was very lucky in that when I started with the company I got to drive MC7's, MC8's and MC9's. They were a pleasure to drive and handled extremely well, especially the MC7's.
