Made it down Black Mountain no sweat. Tow/haul on. Manual 4th gear. No problems. Thanks to all.

Glad you got it figured out. It is nice to have more tranny options, with the later model trucks.

My tow haul, with brake activated downshift works great, but for the long steep down hills, I like to go manual, and control the rpm myself.

The mountains I spoke of are quite steep, several I travel have long 7% grade, ie, I64 into New River Gorge section in WVa....In T/H with EB on aggressive and Aisin tranny, I've yet to have to manually downshift to slow down...I can put truck in cruise control going down some Interstates in the mountains and again, don't have to manually downshift....I had to with my 2010, and even my 12'....but not this truck.

Going down Old Fort,(Black Mountain), isn't that bad.....going down Saluda Grade on I26 can test one's grade braking as well as towing down I26 from NC into TN.....but using T/H and EB....have never had an issue nor had to gear down manually...(towing 5er loaded to 16,300#).

That was all the input I could think of having towed these on I40 and I26 numerous times.

What "inpute" are you looking for?

Inpute better than an outpute.
