The Sedona dirt is almost like red talcum powder! Super, super fine and all over everything. There was a very nice, steep, "sharp-rocked" road out of Sedona called Schnebly Hill Road that we drove up. Beautiful drive at about 5 -10 mph and a great test of tire durability. My understanding is that it was the original route in and out of Sedona. Doesn't look like much has been done to improve it since then.
Bill, I wonder if the reduced power in 2nd is just to minimize slippage on startup in snow or on ice? I do know though that it's a good gear to pull a trailer up a steep grade (7%+) in the mountains.
