Crawling in 'C' with the 7MT

[Bmadda]

Thank you everyone for all of the feedback. I am finally hitting some trails tomorrow and have been looking forward to trying out some of the vehicles potential.

You will figure it out pretty fast! You won't need C very often, but when you use it you will see what it is good for! 1st is very low in 4L, C is just plain nuts, but good for super technical crawling. You can actually 2 foot on the brake and throttle and not stall unless you stab the brake hard. Feels almost like driving a piece of construction equipment (bobcat etc). Have fun!

Crawler gear is awesome, not just a gimmick. as others have said when the trail gets technical, waterfalls, rock gardens and the such, crawler gear is great, i actually wouldnt mind an even lower gear ratio. but once you get past the technical sections, crawler gear is too slow. so then back to 1st or 2nd gear.

I like you guys actually shift out of “c” and don’t become the rolling road block “look how slow I can go” idiot.

I would probably still be a rolling road block shifting from c to 1, to make sure I don't actually go in to R

I used C in both high and low ranges when I was last on the trails. It definitely has plenty of use cases. Especially in uphill obstacles or anything that you want to smoothly traverse at low speed without riding the clutch.

It’s the cat’s pyjamas for the middle school dropoff line in the mornings.

"G" for "Granny",

not "C" for "Crawler", on the Warner T-18 in this thang is a lifesaver!!!!

Absolutely no interest in a manual, but here I am reading every post. Bronco is it’s own form of mental illness.

You're locked out of R, so you aren't going to do a C-R shift unless you intend to. C-1 or C-2 is really quick and easy. I prefer a C-2 shift.

The perfect gear for that line at Starbucks or Timmy Ho's!
