I suppose you could avoid Raton Pass and other pulls by going north to Nebraska, then turning west. But you may as well just jump in with both feet.
If you have your built in truck brake controller set right, you shouldn't be squeezing the dashboard brake thing except in near emergencies.
I really do want to see Colorado. I’ll make sure our brakes are set right while we are on flat land in Texas. I watched a video of someone going through Raton Pass. Seemed like a gradual incline throughout. I’m guessing it’s a bigger grade than I’m seeing. I suppose if my weight in my camper is good I just need some courage and downshift. Watch my temps and don’t push the truck.
