I had a Damon RV built on a Toyota one ton frame. I could top most hills at 45 mph without floorboarding that thing. I just downshifted early and kept that little 22Re engine at 5000 rpm's on the big hills. the engine had a red line near 5500 rpms si U was well within allowable conditions. I could pass vehicles with twice the horsepower because they didn't downshift and keep the rpms up. I drive my F150 with Ecoboost the same way. Let it spin and the engine is happy, the temps stay down (engine and tranny) and I am happy.
