Forgot about this… I put my 13 year old behind the wheel for the first time earlier this week. She putzed around an empty parking lot at night for 5 minutes. @POTATO LAUNCHER recommendation of putting first time drivers in low range gearing was great and I highly recommend it. It’s much simpler to slowly release the clutch and be going about 1/2mph than it is to start in high range gearing where you have to feather the clutch and throttle and get into gear going 10mph.

A little nervous at first, but she felt better when it was over

I did this with my 17 year old a few months ago but he was far less enthused. After he was done he said “the steering isn’t very good” to which I said “yeah, you’re damn right, it’s an old truck!”
