I found the issue with my second gen that had to much slack in the pedal cable to the APPS because the cruise control pulled hills faster than the foot pedal.

In most TV I have driven, the cruise control drops off at between
45 to 48, some a little lower. The statement was made that they
would leave the cruise control on going over the passes on the
west coast. The size of trailer in the picture and his truck I
don't believe they can climb up a 6% grade between 10 to 12
miles and not have the cruise control drop off
I have no idea if mine will drop off at those speeds you listed because I have never seen those speeds along I-5 with cruise on. As I said 53 was the lowest. Westbound on HWY 20 I did not have cruise on because some of the places I have to slow for corners.
I guess my question have you towed with a 2010 or newer RAM and have the cruise drop off at 45-48?
