Heading out West again for 2016
Looking for some information or suggestions from someone that has pulled a 5er across the Million Dollar Highway (Rt 550) in Colorado. I have seen pictures of it but can't seem to find any information...

We did Hwy 12 in Utah before we joined this forum so didn't know we were supposed to be scared so we were not.
We then drove the 550 Hwy and were disappointed because we were not scared at all. Almost all the folks on those two roads acted like they had many active BRAIN CELLS so no problems.
Tell me I have to drive through the D-F-W- area and I am scared to death every time.
We did 12 in Utah a bunch of years and my wife was behind the wheel (her turn to drive)I keep asking she wanted me to drive but she said she was OK. I didn't have the mountain directory to scare the **** out of me. We did US 550 but I drove, not a big deal. Yea there were a few tight turns and no guard rail in some places. Just pay attention and stick to the speed limit. First time was from Durango to Montrose and I went down the hill for Red Mt pass in first gear at 25mph (which is the speed limit) and never touched the brakes until we got to the S turns just before Ouray
