Maybe. Or then again, mebbe not
I asked Mert once, "What's the best thing to do when you get in trouble ?"
He said, "Give it more gas."

Thanks all. I'll probably chicken out and use a transport company. The sad fact is...there's little cost savings once the cost of fuel and wear/tear on the truck comes in to play. For the record, I live in Houston but would be dragging a car there, then picking up another one in Sacramento on the way back.
As for a gas engine being taxed, it's a V10 Ford so I'd be surprised but my experience is zero....
But that 850 Norton has BRAKES.
If it's a non-turbo, be prepared for a 30%-ish loss of power compared to Houston. Air pressure at 9000' is 71% of that at sea level, and frictional losses will be a higher percentage of the power the engine does make.

I owned a truck with a 3406e in it. Had a friend reprogram the ECM. It would fly up 6% grades easly. Took ot in for an overhead 2 years later, the mechanic over adjusted...it sucked both exhaust valves on number 5. 2 weeks later it comes out of the shop; new head, new intercooler, new turbo...and was absolutely gutless. I asked the shop what happened. They told me they were required by EPA to reset the ECM to factory! Wanted $2,200 to put it back they way it was.Triaxle t800 wide hood...good choice, 3406e under the hood?
If he went up 395 he could wait at Tioga Pass until May or June.Shouldn't one just plan that there may be a storm and you have to bed down for a few nights?
Are people saying that some routes are never cleared or easily traveled until spring?
I will be near Corpus Christi, unloading Saturday or Monday. Trailer is an RGN (detachable double drop).Looking at a drive to Portland from Houston next month, F250 RWD truck pulling a 8000lbs. loaded trailer. I've never driven through the Rockies in the cold before...so my question is, are the highways kept in passable condition? Or would I be asking for trouble? The truck is not 4WD nor does it have a limited slip rear so it's not a great poor weather vehicle re: traction.
