We all like manual's but I'll pass on this one. Twin stick 1980 Kenworth v8. I think that's a twin speed axle too (according to Bangshift which is where I found this) so 72 speeds! And check out that double shift at 1:50. I'll pass on this thank you very much.

You found vehicle Dom Tor ett o was driving. So much for critics knowing what they’re talking about. Car is real. Unlimited shifting is real.

DAMN. Entire video is of them shifting between 3rd and 4th. There was one shot of 5th gear

Almost never do they go for hard walls to find other gears.

A friend of mine and I were talking about manual transmissions. He finally told me why he hates them. He owns a dirt business and all of his big trucks have 10-speed transmissions. Since he does a lot of work in the city, every  light means a run up and then back down through the gears. At the end of the day, the last thing he wants to do is row through the gears in his truck.

I can see that. I was in stop and go traffic next to a double axle dump truck a few weeks ago. We killed the time by counting shifts. 87 in about 12 minutes.
