According to the Mountain Directory West "Traveling West on State 200 there are no truck warning signs at the summit of Rogers Pass. There is only about 1 mile of about 6% and then 5% and less for about 2 miles to the chain up area. The road continues to roll up and down west of there.
The eastbound descent begins with a sign saying --"6%"-- no other details. It is a steady 6% for about 3 miles with 25 mph curves near the top. The grade eases to about 5% and then begins to roll up and down. This continues many miles with some 5%-7% hills included but they are usually short in length."
I hope this helps.

Not a great road in the winter time--in a car, 4wd pickup, or especially an RV.
Not bad in the summer, and the whole trip is pretty.
Slightly longer and even more scenic: when you get to Bowman's Corner (intersection of US89 and 200), turn south and head for I-15 at Wolf Creek. That section of I-15 parallels the Missouri River and is really pretty. The section of US200 that you'd miss is a lot of farmland and multiple small towns to slow down through.
