There were a lot of 4x4's out west here back in the '70's-'80's. I did a lot of figuring how to drive one. I got my chance once and jumped in an old Pete with a 318 Detroit and 4x4. It was a 10 wheeler with an end dump not loaded but a load of itself. I set the brownie in 2nd, grabbed 2nd in the main and took off. I went up through all the gears like a pro. I don't see why anyone would shift two sticks at once. To go up a hole I dropped the brownie out of over and dropped the rpms way down to catch under, knock the main out and go up to normal rpm to go to the next gear.
The driver was next to me, obviously impressed. Then he said "Start coming out of it". I didn't know what to do. I had never thought about slowing down. I should have just dropped it in direct and come down on the brakes and grabbed each hole in the main on the way, then I would have looked like a pro.
