Like ShinerB, I would like to see more testing of the rigs ability to safely go DOWN a long steep grade.
IOW how much un-braked towed weight can the truck safely handle going down a standard grade? And while you're at it, make it a twisty one with 20mph hairpin turns separated by 35-45mph straights, not just an Interstate.
But I imagine there are many issues in designing such a standardized test.
Very good point!! How many post have we seen on the forum of a strong puller up hill, ending in a white knuckle ride down the other side!!!
