I've known many truck drivers that drive their rigs like this as well. I've also seen guys operate a synchronized like this.

I have a word for it, it's called abuse. There is no way you could be perfectly timed every time you shift and any slight offset causes permanent damage. Maybe you're really good, but there are many that do it that aren't.

Obviously everyone is going to drive their cars, trucks and motorcycles the way they see fit and that's fine. I'll never shift a vehicle without using the clutch and will not shift a non-synchronized transmission without double clutching.
