this is true! when you get "good",and you will,you will learn to leave it in "creeper gear" (second),WITHOUT disengaging tranny,and just flow in bumper to bumper on very light throttle,without stalling the car! car will move forward smoothly with no jerking motions,but of course,when you have no more room,you must disengage tranny and hit the brake to stop.
