I don't know what the grade is on the Grapevine, but, with the AMG, I can do about 30 mph on a 9% (Which I get enroute to the Green Bank Star Quest in WV)

In an attempt to get back to the original poster here, and not necessarily trying to sell someone in particular's Barth, but you might want to take a look at Gary Carter's Breakaway. He has done the upgrades to his coach that would probably fit your needs. Check it out under Barth Coaches for Sale.
