I can't blame ya. I've been threatening to find the other route because I don't like having to beat my truck to make it up the hill. come on this trip and we can go the other way together That is the most tempting offer I've had in a while, but I would have to miss my son's birthday party. Maybe we can go the other way another time.

David if it helps put your mind at ease I towed 2 jeeps on a 24' Big Tex to CO with my 3/4 ton Dmax. It towed 8% grades without issues. Diesels have so much more pull than the 5.3 you were using its not even a fair comparison. That dually will not have any issues with that hill.

I'd love to go on this ride but no money, and a broken jeep is going to keep me from it. I might hit someone up for a passenger seat

Haha Understood!
A lot of us are at the point of trailering these days so we tend to hit the harder trails. Don't let that discourage you though. Your always welcome to post up a date and location for an easier ride!
