Perhaps. I certainly lack experience of these long hills in 100F+ ambient temps. I've done long steep hills, but the ambients probably weren't above 70F.

To be clear about the results though, are you saying that under these conditions with a cooling system in good shape the fan comes on low speed, then high speed, and the gauge continues to rise, eventually getting into the overheat zone? That's the implication I've been getting from what I've read.
