Please, let ME apologize to YOU: Yes, your post was entirely about dieseling and torque, nothing at all about Tribeca's unsuitability. I whacked you about "something" you never even said.

I agree completely.

I will routinely enter the freeway, I80, using an uphill on-ramp onto an uphill section of the freeway at 7,000+ feet. By the time I merge into the slow lane, I am driving 55 mph and it is easy to merge.

I would not want a smaller TV for where I routinely go. Not everyone goes where I go.

Default Kingvale/Soda Springs or Boreal Ridge?

Those are the only two at 7K. But either way, the Donner Summit entrances are both pieces of cake and CalTrans is spending lots of money to make 'em even easier. But I can be easily impressed: All you have to do is take your Trailer all the way up the 395 side (or down, that's probably worse) of Sonora pass CA-108. (I'm just poking you in fun, of course.) 23% grade.
