Watch your speed; it is a 55mph state.
Be prepared to stop at the scales, they don't use Prepass or if they do they never turn it on.
Don't let another trucker talk you into taking those mountains lightly, if the signs say gear down and do a certain speed (base on your weight usually, sign will tell you) then do it! We have seen numerous trucks coming down those mountains smoking like a chimney, even saw one with a Bear escort and the idiot kept telling the Bear on the CB it's okay my brakes have cooled down now. You couldn't see the rear of his trailer from all the smoke. :shock:
