you know, people who never came "out west" have no clues of the steep passes we have out here......New Diesel pickups fly up these hills now, BUT, I still remember crawling up this pass in a 460 Ford, or a 440 dodge or a 454 chevy with trailers.
Every flat occupiable space in Ca is cut off from the next by a mountain pass. Grapevine, Cajon, Baker Grade, Donner Pass, Tehachape, the list is long.
