babiker911 your profile doesn't give a clue as to what your tow equipment is. We have an '03 Dodge dually with an automatic transmission that we had to have retro fitted with an after market exhaust brake. What a lifesaver this has been. This particular add-on is recommended especially when towing in high mountain areas. This helps with not using your brakes to the point of over heating and slowing you down using an exhaust brake. But the route you have chosen will not pose a big problem. Even though your signature states New Mexico you must not be familiar with high terrain towing. Hang in there you should do just fine with the route you have chosen for this trip. Believe me I am a white knuckle side seat driver!
