When should you choose a starting gear other than the lowest one available?

Pick an answer

1. When the vehicle is lightly loaded and the lowest gear would cause the engine to over-rev before you shift
2. Never, since starting in a higher gear always stalls a loaded commercial vehicle, which sounds right but isn't, at least for available
3. Only when driving downhill from a stop
4. Only after the engine has completely warmed up
