Driver is beating that truck up. He's screamin it right at the redline.
he's also heating up that tranny and burning up his clutch! Not to mention his rear end has all that stress on it. Some people just dont think...

he's a slow shifter to boot.

Not sure why he would even attempt that? That load isn't worth all that much!

Lastly, The same engine is used in Freightliner Tractors. It's just that tractors are geared much lower and have a bigger trans with a much wider ratio to accommodate.

Strange company...he's got more into that Dodge than he's got into the truck that brings home the bacon.
