<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GasHauler, post: 1788477, member: 2164&quot;]This is where your knowledge of what gear to be in at any speed. We only had a couple of short grades but they can get you in trouble when your loaded over 100,000lbs. I would drop a gear when the engine speed made it necessary. That would be around 1200 or lower. Let the truck work for you. I&#039;ve seen drivers just get all worked up and shift up and down for no reason. They are working the truck with poor results. Stay calm and keep your RPM&#039;s in the power band but don&#039;;t run it up against the peg. If you get close to the top and the engine is slowly dropping and you think you can make it go for it, You can&#039;t lug an engine like in the old days.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
