Yeah they all do it. To minimize it try and shift it firmly and quickly (like a putting a boat in gear). You don't want to let it sit between gears where it grinds any longer than necessary. Welcome to the forum!

Right on! I was at the Navy game this weekend and I will be in Ann Arbor for the Michigan game.

Florida looks good this year, but I think Texas will give them a run for there money.
