Not really full of it. Just making an observation. I told meaz I was just messing with him. I've actually not come into Flagstaff from Scottsdale per se, but I've gone there from Sedona many times, which may or may not be the direction he goes in. I've also gone into/out of Flagstaff from Winslow/Holbrook, Kingman, Tuba City (89) and hwy. 180 to the Grand Canyon....most anyway and everyway to get in or out. Is there a hump there? Yep. Is it gargantuan? No. And I probably need to see the ecoboost pulling 9k+ up a 7% grade for miles at 64mph doing 1800 rpm with my own eyes. I've not seen it in any other test.
