i have 3.73 gears i have usually been starting off in 2nd gear. what gear do you guys start out in?

 

2nd if I don't have a big load.

 

Always second if I am on the level and have no load.
Wasn't there a thread with the same question some time ago?

 

2nd unless under load

 

1st or 2nd empty [depending on traffic] 1st loaded

 

Usually 2nd.

 

2nd. Occasionally, just to work it, 1st.

Of course, loaded, 1st.

 

2nd. 3rd if I'm rolling even the slightest bit.

 

1st 2nd 3rd depends on how i feel occasionally 4th but most of the time i use 1st its there and it gets tight if you don't use it on my 99 i never used 1st and now its a ***** to get it in so i'm learning with this one

 

2nd if stopped, 3rd if rolling above 5 mph. 1st if loaded for bear or creeping up to a stop sign in line behind other cars.

 

1st, 2nd, 3rd. Whatever I feel like. If I am on any hill or have any load I will always use 2nd. I very rarely use 1st unless I want to move very little distance with a big load. Even with 8-10000#s I usaly use 2nd. Has absolutly no probs and takes off just like empty. Just let the cluch out at idle and it goes. I go around corners in 3rd or 4th.

 

2nd if still or uphill, 3rd if downhill or barely moving. 1st gear I would trade for a taller 6th. It's even too short for traffic creeping. Maybe one day I'll need it, but not yet.

 

Second gear except when I'm towing the 5 er Then it's 1st for sure unless I'm rolling.

I don't want to trade a higher 1st for a higher 5th - I LIKE MY CLUTCH

 

I've only had the 6spd for a little over a week, but so far I like taking off in 2nd. Have only had it in 1st a few times, seems too low for empty driving, although I'm sure it will come in handy when towing. 'Til then, I'll just use it for parking lots...

 

2nd most of the time some times 3rd. UI have just to screw around took of in 6th though. It was amazing to see it.
