A little help from neutral on the down hills and over those slight up hills (like overpasses) helps a lot out on the flat parts of the country. Use that throttle as little as possible. Lose a mph or 3 on the up hill side and nice and gently with the throttle, get it back on the down hill side.

I kind of get it. Going uphill or even just accelerating watch the boost gauge, if it hits 17-18 lift your foot just a hair and it drops to 11-12, but you’re still accelerating.

It takes a lot of discipline to drive it this way, I’m not sure yet how this will work loaded heavy in hills. I’ll keep working at it. Thanks!
