Flatlanders, geez..................I modded my 7.3 cause I wanted to run 55+mph up 9 miles of 6 and 7% with a 13K trailer. When the hills are that long the gasser won't have enough torque to carry that speed for that amount of time or miles. I monitor everything because I tow in temps above 110* and have towed on those grades in higher temps. Ya'll come to Az this summer, call me and I'll buy your gas and let you take my trailer up and I'll follow and just see for everyones info what it will do. Here's your chance to shut us diesel owners up. Any takers???
The reason I know this is I owned an F350 gasser and had to move up to pull this big trailer I have now. My friends neighbor has a Chevy big block 2500 and pulls a toyhauler that weighs around 8K and on the same pulls he runs about 30 flooring it.
