With your practice rig try smooth positive changes with a double clutch, 1800 rpm shift point should let you change real nice. Speed and rpm are relative. With an empty rig you might take off in 3rd, shift to 5th then split to next range. Smooth and positive will see your speed nicely climbing and the motor tonking along, Should never need to go below 6th when cruising empty.
If loaded use all the gears but smooth acceleration is the key. Shifting at around 1800rpm and using the torque to keep rolling along. Dont try and give it a boot full because its slow. This will only over rev the box and make it harder to shift. Good driving with the big rig also involves a good perception of what is going on around you and up ahead. Timing your movements and treating everyone on road as if they are idiots will see you right
