I love to take the Rex on long trips, specially over mountains
All i carry is a 2.5 gallon additional gas tank , which fits in front
All ICE cars and trucks were speeding each other and the slow RVs , over the passing lanes
But i observed, that changed quite suddenly , at above 8000 thousand feet of elevation.
Now the cars , Trucks and the Jeeps were no longer hurrying up to pass the slow RV's at the first chance.
Instead they were decently giving way for others to pass
With no deterioration of pickup speed, it was easy to accept that.
I am guessing with that elevation, they did not have the quick pickup . i believe traditional ICE will have around 30% power reduction at that elevation
The last time , i was driving a Ford explorer V6 automatic above 8000 elevation, i remember , it just would not pickup above the 55 miles , so i could not pass. it was not a choice.
I am sure my Rex also lost power, but with my buffer , it did not matter. I could care less
I like to call Rex - Auxiliary power. I use it every time , at uphill , to help reduce load on battery ( and be within 2C discharge rate) and shut-it off otherwise
I love this multiple power sources like in star-trek .
