Newer Trucks = Tow Cheating

Finally found the time to tow the Montana with the new truck (vs my 05 Ram with ebrake) up to the Eastern Sierras where I was able to ascend and descend some decent grades. It's simply cheating, all the work is gone. Push on the gas she just goes and goes, tap the brake, e-brake and gears do all the work. In fact I had to accelerate on a long 6% descent rather than the standard 10MPH brake routine.

Maybe the topic should be Newer Trucks = Tow Happy! I probably said "Man i love this truck" a dozen times. I imagine the same can be said for any of the big three's newer trucks.
