    yea they can do what they want with it, but if drivers stood up for themselves, they would have to allow it to go the speed limit.....or pay a driver what they would make driving the speed limit

    and i dont have to worry, my company will never govern my truck, unless required by law. i just honestly feel bad for all the drivers i fly by everyday going 15mph under the speed limit on flat land. just isnt right

    That may be, but who's paying for the fuel? I bet you want a fast truck and a long hood and chrome and lets toss in an apu so the truck stays cool while your in the T/S playing vidio games.
    That may or may not be you but it does discribe alot of other drivers out there

    well if the company is saving so much fuel (which they obviously do) they should be compensating the driver for all the lost time traveling under the speed limit. thats all im saying.

    Properly geared trucks will get better mpg at 70 mph than poorly geared trucks get at 55 mph.

    Wanna go 70 or 75 or even 80?? Buy a truck. When you pay for the equipment, ALL the heavy truck taxes that I doubt Some of you guys know about, FUEL, tires, insurance, etc, you'll have a change of heart. Getting 15 minutes farther up the road by the end of the day will cost you not just fuel, but additional wear and tear on the truck...

    Aside from the money aspects, I don't know about y'all, but I don't wanna see some of these steering wheel holders unleashed.
