My camper is in the 7000 lb range loaded. Now in AK we don’t have paved roads around the 10k’ range but I do climb steep passes for 2-3k vertical feet. Towing I always run 90-92 octane (unless I’m somewhere it isn’t available) ECT to power and trans to S4, it is common for me to shift to 3rd and sometimes 2nd on steeper uphill grades.
