You have an auto tranny? I'm assuming yes because of the tranny temp gauge.
If it's an auto, you can just leave it in (D) and put it on the floor.
Alternatively, I start in 1st and hand shift it up to second when first winds out. I feel this is the best at my power level because the truck would fall on its face if it decided to hit (D), at my power level.
