Should be fine even in middle gear. But as said above, ever be on the alert for it popping out of gear which could be very bad. I have a ck30hst, 2005 and also almost stops on a steep slope just with the gears.
Also, I wouldn't use 4WD on paved roads, too much torqueing around.

Come to think of it I had the pop out of gear thing happen once, I was squirming around in the seat, by trying to sit sideways to use the sprayer behind me, and I accidentely pushed the shift out of low range into N with my big Butt:laughing:. But fortunately I was able hit the brakes quickly. No harm done, but watch out for that, if you squirm around a lot.
