I'm taking a trip this weekend, with about 30 miles of flat land before the climb, and I will check again just to make sure.

I don't know about that either. Sounds like fifth to me. In sixth you should be about 1500-1600 r's.

I'm at 2700 r's in S-5 with the TC locked at 70 mph or so.

I'm sure glad we didn't get a ticket going thru your neck of the woods. We went flying thru there about 70-74 mph last spring. Of course, it was on the outskerts of town. He!!, going thru town was like 50 or so with all the traffic.

You talking about that steep azz hill south of vegas? That is a steep climb, and loooooooong as well. That hill is where my dad set the cruise at 75, and it didnt' drop below that speed with his 9k lb fiver behind.
