great video, and she did really good for the first time

Great first time driving truck, talk about added pressure doing it on KZread. Always a good time checking your channel out. Thank u for sharing

Hell she did great 👍 . You never learn if you don't try .

Awesome job girl, several more hours of driving, First of all get that seat adjusted so that you are more comfortable. Floating gears is easy once you understand that truck the clutch is only used to start and stop. Have a great harvest...

Young ladies like Katie can do anything with a little help-go Katie go- my granddaughter really enjoyed this -thank you for sharing!

Nice cab corn ,, now I can brag ,, I have never had cab corn , with hundreds of hours running a combine,, but I have never run a combine with a cab on it . OK i have put grain down my back , but does that count ?? Katie , you did a great job < you will just get better.

She did great , the thing she needed was the seat adjusted to fit her . Couple days and she will be a pro !

Katie driving 101, good job! Running minion be huffin and puffin!

That’s awesome that you’re teaching here and not yelling at her or getting mad !! You’re a very good and patient teacher I love it !!

Katie did a fantastic job for her first time! That’s not easy especially for the first time. I guess the teacher had a lot to do with it though lol. Great video as usual. Thanks for sharing.

She’s doing awesome first time!

My first impressions when learning to drive trucks were (1) a lot of tree-trimming doesn't take large vehicles into account, and (2) a lot of ordinary motorists have no idea how long it would take you to stop when they cut in and out in front of you.

Thank You for sharing your family videos with us

Great job Honey Badger! Really like the way you think about safety. Have a great harvest with your family.

Great job Katie! Congratulations BTW!

She did an awesome job for her first time. Getting the seat adjusted was a great help!

The no 1 thing I teach drivers/operators is get to know how the seat works and get it right, so you will not have the extra struggle when driving/operating, especially learning to drive/operate. So adjust the seat for a few parameters. 1, Peddle push length, 2/. Height to have clear view around you. and 3/. Length to press farthest item you need to press or adjust when driving, plus feel the room of the stick shift to make sure you are not in the way of it movements.. I do all this before I start any vehicle I drive.. If you have issues, you know before hand, instead of finding out when driving, therefore can plan accordingly.. Repeat everything above after you adjust the seat. A comfortable seat means easier to operate and less pains (both emotional and physical pain) after a long period of time. If you are struggling within a short time, find a safe place to stop (put vehicle in safe idle mode) and readjust seat. Practice makes perfect. Always gets in the habit to plan the journey for obstacles.

keep up the amazing work guys!

Great job driving the semi Katie

Great job driving young lady!

Katie did great! Keep up the training and you'll get there before you know it.

Great job young lady.

Awh decker is such a good teacher ❤

Hard to get cab corn on an old massy 850. She did good for first time. I never had problems with tractors on the farm. But every time I got in a manual vehicle I’d stall it. Now I daily drive a manual. Semi first time I stalled out the old Mack.

Awesome job keep up the good work

I am a fan of Farmers, however I believe that you should be wearing safety harnesses when climbing on top of the storage bins. Plus the ladders up the side of the bins should have cages so you can attach the safety equipment.

Great job!!

She did pretty good

Nice job Katie !!

Katey is a quick learner. You could mention she can watch the Tach drop 500 RPMs then grab the next gear depending on the transmission .

At least you could have put some air in the seat! She couldn't even see over the dash! 😂😂😂

If you put a little pressure on the stick before you shift it is a lot easier to get it out of gear when you’re shifting up

Katie good Job

I think everybody should have to drive a semi to carry a license, that way they would know what it takes to turn, stop and accelerate a big truck!

Yeah, first thing before driving is adjust your seat and mirrors to a proper conformable position! Other than that, she was pretty calm for a first time which helps a lot learning and driving fine after!

She rocked it

Wooo Katey!!! ❤

Your down shifting is interesting. I was always taught to give it more throttle to pop it out and then let off and then get back into it to get it in the lower gear! Never use the clutch to down shift

@mannfamilyfarms381

Yeah 2 ways to do it! I see a lot of people do it the way I do. I get the truck down to 1000-1200 rpm, slightly push in clutch just enough to get out of gear then rev up and float the lower gear. For me I feel I have more control as I’m reducing speed. I don’t like revving up while I’m gear to slow down, feels odd to me. Always multiple ways to do it, just whatever you’re comfortable with.

For the cab corn issue maybe you could somehow fasten a plastic tote or something up there and then when it gets loaded go up with a clean shop vac and suck it out and either put it in a separate container so you can do what you said like buy pop or whatever for the shop with what would’ve been lost or just suck it if top with the shop vac with no box or anything just right off the cab!! Well that’s my 2 cents on the deal!!

I never thought I could ever learn to float, now I'm not so sure I could double-clutch. I sure as heck can't drive a passenger stick/snycro'd transmission. I'll stall it 2-3 times before figuring it out.

Awesome young lady proud of you you doing better then a y student from a training school 💯

Curious why you aren't floatin the downshift as well? No different then floating the up shift. Let off accelerator, Preload the shifter, lightly tap the accelerator and she pops right out of gear. Much easier and quicker then using the clutch imo.. I know everyone has there own driving styles but the only time i use the clutch is Start/stops or if its Sticking in a gear / isn't fully going into gear then ill tap the clutch quickly.

I’ve been driving a lot lately and I tried that quite a bit one day. I didn’t mind it but sometimes it gets jumpy trying to get it out of gear. By just slightly pushing the clutch in to get it out I feel I have total control. Just me though

Nice job , just feel in to gear and out of gear , it’s called synchronized shifting the object of it without a clutch is the ground speed of the tires and the drive shaft need to be the same speed ( synchronized) 1500 to 2100 will shift Easley with out a clutch , you can shift all the time with the clutch you just need to adjust for RPMs and road , thanks BigAl California.
