I don't want to do anything that's going to cause me detonation issues when pulling 10k lbs up an 8% grade for 8 miles (I see that when I travel east like I did recently with that enclosed trailer). I need this truck to pull 10k lbs, but I could use a bit more mileage (and extra power is a nice bonus).
