10k lbs vs 3 half tons vs the Ike Gauntlet

Going from Laughlin NV to Kingman up the 6% grade for 11 miles is pretty good climb. Try it in 105F weather in the summer, and you can really tax a great truck to the melt down point!

There is a recent road test up this mountain using new 2015 F-150, Ford Transit van, and others. It is no wonder that Ford must run 9 shifts 40 hours a week to produce so many trucks each year!
