So... these things will run backwards...

Posted

Was on my way to work this morning and stopped on a hill at a red light. Light turns green so I start letting out on the clutch and I thought the truck was going to stall so I mash the clutch in and it picked back up, so I give it some more fuel and start letting the clutch out again and watta you know I start going backwards... in 2nd gear :stuned: truck ran for about 10 seconds or so backwards then died. Started it back up and off she went like normal. quite a experience though.
