Thanks for all the replies. I wasn't sure if the engine rpms would get too high going down a steep descent keeping in a low gear. All of the late model gassers I have been looking at had Ford chassis with the V-10. What is redline on these motors ?
There is no redline for these motors. The computer will not let you hurt that motor. I've seen 5000 plus RPM on our rig when going down a very steep grade but the V10 was holding speed just fine. I use a combination of Cruise Control and Tow/Haul.
