​@@thundernargundkar9618a Jake brake, as I understand it, effectively acts to stop air flow in to the cylinder creating vacuum to slow the rig down. Now why he doesn't need the clutch to shift is beyond me

​@joshroddey7320 yeah and then the public wonders why us Truckers hate them. I had a woman driving a school bus decide to just stop and let kids off the bus one day with no advanced warning. She just stopped, opened the doors then threw the reds on. Thankfully I was paying attention going the other way, but she waited until I was almost going by her to stop. I had to stand on the brakes as I was pushing 65K pounds. Then she decided to get mouthy with me. I guess she didn't notice the Trooper that almost rear ended me and he had plenty to say to her. It started with why don't you pull over there.
