In mid November, I'm taking a trip to the Rockies to see mountains. I've never had a chance to really get up close with 'em before, just seeing them far off in the distance. I'll be driving to the top of Pikes Peak, driving to Alma and Leadville, and driving to the top of Mt. Elbert if it has road access (tallest mountain in the Rockies).
Anyway, I'm concerned about the altitude affecting the car. Mt. Elbert is at 14,433 ft. Do these newer vehicles automatically compensate for altitude, or is there something I would need to adjust? Also, what about chains? Are chains safe for the LHS?
