To the OP before this thread goes south and gets locked... My question is how did your truck do while going out west. I noticed that u also have a GM 6.0 gas job. I'm sure other owners of Gas trucks may have wondered the same since the hills are different out there verse the east.
Thanks
It pulled like a beast! Had NO problems pulling up several 3-5% grades and passed numerous semis going up those grades. There was only one 5-6% grade I got stuck behind a semi for a bit then could build any speed to get past him once the traffic cleared.
The trans temp never went past 190* that I noticed and I was pulling up some steep inclines with air temps in excess of 100*. So all in all, I am very pleased with how it pulled and I am very happy with how stable the it remained, even in some windy conditions.
