interesting tidbit, but seeing all the new vehicles going really fast uphill; our mechanic says that flooring ot in a vehicle with a cvt uphill takes over 1000 miles of life off of the transmission for every mile going full throttle up the hill. New big truck transmissions also no longer are able to withstand the heat soak of gears and bearings and sees new(er)vehicles all the time with burned out transmissions. We drive vintage 4x4 suburbans and every time going up the hill keep an eagle eye on the tranny pil temp, and pull over if it gets to 220 degrees. Driving max 35-40 mph to keep temps below that warnong line, so of course we have gotten real good at always letting folks pass every turnout.

Hi BNB, I like driving a little faster than some and really appreciate it when folks use the turn outs on 38 since there are not many places to pass, especially down bound. I politely ask with a headlight flash and thank them with a flasher on the hazards. But if I see a train of cars I just give up and resign that it's going to be a slow ride.
