I'm in E TN which is pretty darned hilly, clutch out and into gear for P&G and have since I bought the truck...in 1987. We were pretty broke for a long time so I drove the truck like gas was way more expensive than it really was. I was P&G before I even knew it had a name.
Teaching the last kid to drive stick finally cooked the first clutch at over 200,000 miles, but the rest of the tranny sounds fine. I might need to replace a bushing in the shifter but the box itself feels as good as it ever did.
Above about 40mph or so, reengaging in top gear, I'll give the gas a quick stab if the engine is running but it's 50/50 on a long downhill I turned it off, so there's nothing to stab. Clutch, gear, let 'er rip.
