rjstractor,
You brought up my dilemma. I sure would like the manual for the exhaust brake coming down steep 2 lane mountain roads. Coming down hill I run into a great many 10 mph hairpin turns up in the Sierras. Giving up the power to get it burns my butt. :B
To get out of the valley were I live there is a good amount of steep interstate grades. It sure would be nice to have the extra power for those.
I always end up thinking safety on the steep mountain downhill should be my priority.
But that limits me to only the Ram. Even worse power in the 4500's and 5500's.
