Re: Towing in COLORADO

The weight of that trailer will slow you down going up Vail pass or the Eisenhower tunnel, but not being in a hurry and just cruising up those passes shouldn't give you any trouble.

When I tow my Jeep and trailer (a touch over 5K lbs) up over our summit here on I-80 in Laramie (7% grade I think), it will slow me down to around 63 mph, and I know those two passes I mentioned are quite a bit longer than our summit.

The RL should be ok with all the extra tarnny coolersand factory stuff.
