[QUOTE="Trick.Raptor, post: 1550396, member: 16456"] Hill Descent uses the brakes heavily when used so you would most likely overheat the brakes even faster using Hill Descent down a long pass like Pikes Peak. Lower gears would be the better option. I haven't been to Pikes Peak recently, the last time I went the pass was still unpaved and I did it with my old Nissan Titan 4X4. At first I thought go down in 4LOW but that was too slow! I ended up going down in 1st and 2nd and by the time I got to the brake checkpoint my brake temps were well within the acceptable temps....
