What's the real gas class-A hill climbing MPH?
Talking to couple old timers while wandering around RV show, one commented and other agreed that a gas Class-A slows down to about 5mph climbing our Western Mountains. I've had occasion to follow some on prior trips and can't recall ever being slowed down anywhere near single digit MPH.
Sounds like a couple of old timers who didn't know how to drive a big rig. Yes you can have trouble even in a diesel if you don't know how to manually shift it. My biggest slowdown is geting caught by traffic, mostly big trucks. Then just slow down and enjoy the scenery.
Most newer gas coaches are Ford V10s You can reve them and not hurt them as they have a rev limiter.
