Are those pictures above of "the highest public road pass in America" that I've read about?
It would be an interesting topic thread to talk about and publish pictures of the largest RV to (ever) cross this pass! Not just pickup trucks w/shells, but "true" RVs.
i.e. I wonder if a Tiger or Earthroamer has ever crossed this pass? How about a Class B on a van chassis ever crossing this pass? Is 4WD absolutely required ... or could a 2WD rig (with a lot of weight on the rear wheels) make it in the middle of summer?
Also, I guess it would be difficult for a carburator engine powered heavy rig to make it this high? Probably fuel injected/turbo-charged/super-charged would have a much easier time of it?
