Larry,

I travel through Gorman on I-5 frequently with the TM. With my Toyota Sequoia, it is no problem -- I maintain 60 MPH for most of it, even the climbs, but in low gear. If I have to slow down for some reason, such as not being able to pass, it's nearly impossible to get back up to speed till the climb is over, but it's not a big deal. For the downgrades, as Art suggested, you'll also want to use a low gear to avoid overheating your brakes.

Other than that, take it easy, and watch for the crazy drivers -- they're my primary concern.

Dave
