That bronco in question lost its brakes and the driver attemted to shift into low gear but missed the shift thats why it ran away. Trucks without ABS when going down steep inclines should never use brakes, if you lock the brakes up thats when you lose control and end up in trouble, always use low range and low gear and you shouldn't have to use your brakes. I've been wheelin' Jeeps for about 14 years and learned that the hard way many years ago and lost my first Jeep but managed to walk away. You should test your rigs capability of this and get used to how it reacts on short steep grades then you will know how to react to it on A longer hill. Just some friendly advice to those who may not know.
