Wow Bill, thanks for the informative reply. I do most of my camping up on the rim north of Clint's Well or off Lake Mary Road. We occasionally travel north of Phoenix in I-17, but most of our travel is out of the valley on Rte. 87 (Beeline Highway). The long hill between the Roosevelt Lake turn off and Sunflower coming back into the Valley is really a killer on the transmission. That is the hill that really worries me. I suppose a temperature monitoring gauge and transmission cooler would really help. I will browse through the Towing Rigs forum and see if I find any other encouraging information.
