Should I shift into 2nd gear at the top of the mountain, get into the right lane, and keep my speed under 50MPH and deal with the dirty looks as people pass me?
In a word, yes.
The other option is to take a chance on overheating your brakes and having an accident. Now you will be getting more dirty looks from more motorists as traffic is now backed up for miles because your trailer is spread across all lanes. The best outcome from this situation is you are still alive to be able to see the dirty looks as they crawl by the wreck.
