What kind of experience have you had with mountains and the Ford V-10 F53 setup? Thinking of a new MH with this under it.

We have a 1999 southwind with v-10,have 37000 miles,thought i had a problem when climbing the mtn and the wat temp gauge never moved,to hot,pulling a 2008 saturn.at 40 to48mph.Found out that Ford put the biggest radiator in the v-10.I was told It will never get hot,I just go with the flo and enjoy my driving,climbed the grapevine at42mph,climbed the sisques 45mph I also use my cruse control as much as poss,and avg6.9 mpg,I sure love my v-10.Thought at one time we trade up to a diesel,NOPE keeping my 99.
