The Ebrake is not a pull up handle type one its a pull out push in type one under the dash I've tried this method it feels awkward

It will still work. I learned on an old farm truck that was 3 on the tree.

Cool I stick with that then . What about pulling a trailer ? Haven't done it yet but am going to have too . It's a little Tacoma that shouldn't be pulling anything but whatever . Is it any different with the extra weight

Hell, I had one like that. Sometimes that hand brake lever was the only way to get the damn thing to stop!

My old Tacoma pulled just fine, slow going through the gears but once in 5th did fine

heavy loads ? I saw It pull a couple larger heavy rolling steels on a little dove tail one time and the two were not agreeing well lots of grinding and smoke coming from somewhere . Just asking to know what to expect

when I was a youngster working with my grandad on masonry jobs he would only let me screw up once, he would show me the correct way, then say, don't lick your calf twice, I'm positive it means don't eff up twice

I just pulled my skeeter with it with bed loaded down, learn how to work the clutch and gears, rpms and sound you'll figure it out

got it grampa used to say lots of confusing things like that I just shook my head and said okay and still haven't found out where over yonder is either

You don't seem excited about our potential bromance. I need someone to replace Dan90210 as my fishing drinking buddy

My papaw was colorful to say the least. One summer visit when I was around 9 or 10 and tagging along with him to work on a rent house I got to learn all sorts of things - some of which are not appropriate to repeat on here. LOL

I've never owned an automatic vehicle. Neither has my wife. I'm still trying to convince her that the parking break is to be used, but it's good practice to also park it in gear. She is a redhead, so no matter what, im wrong.

Learn to give it gas at the same pace you let off the clutch. Also, after you get it moving, learn to shift without the clutch. Get the rpms up, let off the gas slightly, and change gears at the same time. I've driven many a card back home after a clutch burned out. Tricky part is at a red light. Put it in 2nd and hit the starter, it will jump forward, start and you're on your way again.

Did Dan Weinstein you?

I watched a tow truck take out a privacy fence in Richardson. The driver got out. Guessing he put it in reverse instead of park. It backed itself right into someone's fence. Dude got back in and drove off.
