We did Wilson Pass with 9K lbs tt on an F250 no problem.
Also did 18% grade both up and down to Rickett's Glenn in Pennsylvania with the same set up.
Last month, we did the Dalton highway, dirt/gravel with 10-12% grades in our fully loaded gas class A pulling a jeep wrangler. No problems except one spot where construction crews had deeply wet down a dirt 10% grade to regrade it. About 100 yards from the top, we were sinking and sliding almost as much as we were moving forward. We made it, but gained about 500 lbs of mud between the rig and the jeep.
