People make fun of driving through Iowa but it is deceiving. I once rode my bicycle on the Coors Classic bike trip from Golden Colorado,up to Estes Park, rode through Rocky Mountain NP to Granby and back to Golden. We crossed the Rockies twice. Another year I rode from the western edge of Iowa to the eastern edge. The Iowa trip climbed twice as many vertical feet as the Colorado trip. It just did it 200 feet at a time. Hill after hill after hill after rolling hill.
The difference with driving a rig across Iowa nothing has time to get hot on the short climbs. When riding bike, 200 feet will definitely heat you up.
