Buddy with the C63 went from high 9s low 10s on level ground to 8.7 on a 2.5% slope.

Maybe you coincidentally bogged during those downhill slope pulls? That'll hurt you a ton.


I had no idea it was that much of a difference, no wonder you guys hunt so much for those grades just under 3% !

No I'm really going to have to start driving around with my vbox and watch the elevation, I wonder if there is some website that lists elevations for highways and such ? Google Earth maybe?
