Re: downshifting early to 2nd towing uphill ?
 54 lookee's no input 
I got several responses from the other forum  X
This forums going to $hit (this is my main forum  ) 
Anyway   All's good
I made it home 5,000 miles round trip
For most small hills on the trip I could run 65 to 70 mph no problem.(at 70 or higher it will hold third but if you hit 69.9999 it goes down to 2nd at 5,500 rpm  .
the larger hills around 60 mph works
little longer hills down to 55
even longer larger hills(texas/nm rt 40) it will hold 50mph but 51 will drop down to to second at a drivable 4,000 rpm's.
Average gas for trip 11.5 MPG at 9,000 lbs total weight (300 miles unhooked with about 2 hours of idle time)
I normaly get 12 to 13 mpg on the east coast
