    This past weekend, I decided to try out two different Freightliner Trucks, one equipped with a Mercedes-Benz Automated Manual (AGS), and one with an Allison Fully Automatic, with a throwback shift control.

    Since we don’t really have any memes of our own (that I can think of) I’m going to go ahead and coin the term Doin it Chevy-style.  Have at it in the comments. Special thanks to CptSevere for the photo.
