We use tow/haul a lot, especially in the mountains. Coming down from the I-70 tunnels is where we really need it. The drop from the tunnels into Frisco is a couple thousand ft drop in a real short amount of road. Tow/haul downshifts so I barely have to touch the brakes. The engine is screaming, but the V-10 is built for it.
When we first got the coach, Ford had a mistake in the computer that didn’t downshift in Tow/Haul. We made the I-70 run and by the time I got to the bottom the brakes were smelling pretty bad. The we had to do Vail Pass hoping the the brakes would hold. When we got back home, the coach went into the shop to have the software fix loaded.
