If no one cares I might get back on track?? If you do care about staying off topic for what Cuppa asked, then well ...
I've never had a truck with a hand throttle and agree with the many different descriptions of basically the same thing. Even without the hand throttle you can get used to positioning yourself and keeping it somewhat stable most of the time. Some days things will take you by surprise and you won't!
The hand throttle sounds good to me to have a slightly higher base to avoid stalling. But I think that would also take time to get used to. Don't think I'd want it set too high, but can see the logic in using it.
So, the conclusion to all this (which was also mentioned several times above)? Get out and practice! Then get out some more. Try some of the ideas from above and after a while you will have a system that works for you. If not, get out some more and eventually you will. You'll feel comfortable and do whatever it is you do and it will work without thinkimg about it. Kind of like learning to change gears really?? Can be awkward for learners but with time it just happens.
So, when are we going next?
