When should you plan your shifts on a route you know includes a steep uphill grade shortly after a stop sign?

Pick an answer

1. Wait until you are already moving to decide which gear to use

3. Gear selection only matters once the truck is already partway up the grade, which only seems true until you deal with sign
4. Choose a low starting gear before the stop so you have enough power to pull away on the grade
