sometimes when i try to drive off in my manual transmission the truck gets "stuck". its only happend 2-3 times, and maybe after a rain each time, but i park on a hill and when i have the truck in neutral it doesnt budge and when i put it into gear and try to move it it doesnt go until i really push it and then it breaks free from being stuck. i have no idea what causes it. any ideas?

Once in a while I have the same problem, Not so much recently, I have a automatic though.

I would shift Into drive and the truck Would not Budge, I hit the gas Then a Thud and I'm moving

So I'm just as Confused but its been Months since my truck did it. It was also on a hill when it did it.

maybe the Gears are locked up because the trucks on the hill and the weight of the truck is Pushing on the Gears, But i'm not so sure.
