That particular stretch of highway is the worst (to my knowledge) in AZ. There's a lot of US highways off in the east that wiggle around some fairly good hills, but nothing like it. I've only seen one worse, and it's on I-8 between Yuma and San Diego; I'm not sure of the elevation change but it made the C-10 Chevy I was in grunt pretty hard. > -----Original Message----- > From: Park, Keith J (CRD) [SMTP:parkkj@crd.ge.com] > Sent: Thursday, October 15, 1998 9:43 AM > To: 'type3@vwtype3.org' > Subject: RE: [T3] The Hill > > Geeze!
