I was put off from auto boxes for training because before I did any training, the manual gear boxes sounded fairly complex. I didn’t want to pass my test in an automatic, then have to be faced with a manual and be completely clueless! That being said, when it comes to gearboxes, I only have ever driven 1 type, so it’s going to be hit n miss with the slap over box if this is what the Merc Axor’s have!
I have my mod 4 this week, my training school have a lorry with a slap over box, I might just ask to have a quick look at it, so I know what to expect (visually anyway)
Thanks, Pete. I’ve actually got a a couple of interviews lined up for when/if I pass my mod 4, Brakes being the only non agency company though!
