rockies or smokey's
when pulling a fifth wheel though the rockies or smokey's should you use cruise control, or down shift manually

Don't know what kind of a tow vehicle you have, but for my GMC Sierra/Duramax Allison when towing, I turn on the exhaust brake as soon as I start the engine and use the cruise control whenever I want to maintain a steady speed.
On down grades the speed may creep up to about 5 mph before the exhaust brake an downshift occur. On steep down grades I may have to touch the brakes occasionally.
