I suspect that they use Ike, not because it is frequently traveled but it is an easy way to test and compare towing capability. I have never pulled over it, and would avoid it if I had an option to do so. However it is a great way to compare and contrast pickup performance. Much more revelent than quarter mile times. If a tow rig can own Ike it likely can handle about anything in North America.
The little Dmax should be pretty much bulletproof. They have been running this motor in other parts of the world for some time now.
I will take a guess that the little truck stays above 40 mph going over the hill at max payload. I look forward to this test regardless, but I really want to see what the real world MPG results are going to be.
