I'd recommend taking the Coach out of Cruise Control going down a step hill, especially on a 14% grade, I think I'd have the transmission manually selected in 3rd gear or lower on a 14%. downgrade LeeCasebeer '01 Intrigue x #11219 @ 109k miles

Thanks, Lee, that's what I've been doing. Just thought that while on cruise, the exhaust brake would of limited the speed accumulation down a hill like what Dave mentioned. As it is, I'll cancel cruise and use the exhaust brake. On that 14%, I was very glad indeed, to have it.
