Matt,
Mid 80s, with little humidity, is not hot after an entire summer of 90s & 100s
Russ,
I am amazed how well the computer does at anticipating grades and adjusts. Running I-40 to Cal the coach downshifts just a handful of times. Seems like the engine computer can anticipate additional load quicker than I would. And does so much smoother. Whenever I have tried to go off the cruise control, I feel like I'm playing catch up which causes additional shifting. On the other hand an engineer designed the system so I guess an engineer would be the one to beat the system. I'm just not that smart.
