I was wondering about using the gears while I'm going down hill. I have a 2004 Ram 2500 and tow an 8,000 lbs toyhauler. I've been towing down some two lane roads lately and using the gears to control the speed. Some areas were steep enough that in first the motor was up to 3k rpm. Are there any negatives to doing this or better techniques I should consider?

thanks,
