How steep a hill is he climbing?

Seriously, on the flats he should be able to get it up to 45-50 mph eventually, but it might take a while because the truck is heavy for the amount of power it has. I think that's 70-80 km/h if I remember what my American speedometer read when I used to drive in Canadia. You don't say what the RPMs are, but if it sounds like it's winding out pretty fast at 40 km/h, I suspect Kaegi is right and it's not really in high range. There could be all kinds of reasons for that, all simple to fix, but first try to put it in low range and see how it does. If you can't find a low range, that means you're probably already in it.
