danojeno, what kind of speed do you get down to on steep grades. I had a 2002 GMC like yours but with a duramax and I was pushing only 40 or 45 mph. I traded it in for a 2007 with duramax (because the 2008 and newer beds are too tall) and im hoping the truck will be a little better on the grades. Im sure im close to max of trailer so just say im at 11,900 lbs.
There are steep grades I drop down to 40 or 45, but I'm usually not trying to beat on it. I think I did the Cajon pass at about 50, if you are familiar with that area. With the 07 Duramax you should be veryhappy. That would be my truck of choice.
