most of the time I float through not using the clutch. In simpler terms its called "splitting gears".

Double clutching was more with the old "Super 10" transmissions

walking contradiction?

Bahhh powershifting is where it's at... the only time I use the clutch in our 8 speed trucks is 1st gear and to downshift. But with new trucks, its a very good idea to double-clutch to break it in.
