Mike,

I can't give you gradients right now but my wife and I drove our fully laden
Westy to Burning Man last year using Highway 80 - both ways comin' and
goin'.

The weather was pretty darn warm but she ran fine with the temperature
gauge just a little over the LED at most. I can't remember the fan coming
on.

I don't think we ever went below around 40mph. Of course we never exceeded
55mph either. And we didn't run the air conditioning. I don't like to push
her (the Westy).
