No need to double clutch, once you get used to the truck you will be able to shift it perfectly without ever touching the clutch. But, in my experience NO two trucks shift the same, even if they have the same engine tranny...

I agree! Looks like everyone's liking the splitter. I also agree on no 2 trucks shifting the same. As a matter of fact, we actually have 2 Internationals that are identical as far as engine, trans, even the paint schemes are the exact same. The one we use for the road upshifts @ 1000 & the downshifts are @ 1500. The other one upshifts @ a around 1200-1100, & the downshifts are anywhere from 1000-900. Weird!
