I went through the pass with my F-250 going north, in overdrive at the speed
limit all the way, last year.  Admittedly with a lot less trailer (22'
Streamline +/- 4000 lbs.), and with a bigger motor also equipped with the BD
chip.  Neither my temperature gauge nor the Pyrometer rose significantly
higher.   I too had the exhaust brake.  You should have no problem.

I found Monarch Pass more of a challenge than Raton.
