Colorado Mountain Driving Question

Hey Guys,

I'm planning a trip in my E350 5.4 Quigley Class C from Lake Placid NY to Crested Butte CO. I'm a little nervous about the roads that I might encounter on the way. The unit has pulled it's heavy butt up many east coast mountains but never anything out west. We weigh in at 12,000 lbs fully loaded with a KLR 650 hanging from the hitch. Can I craw slowly up the mountain passes without getting killed? Will trans temps be a problem? Should I use high test? Will my little motor blow up?

I appreciate it.

Jim
