    Could have been when it was new. Every time I get a new vehicle, it’s easy to be speeding without realizing it. I got pulled over 3 times in the first week I had my Western Star. Took it in and had top speed set at 69, since speed limit was 55 back then. Now you have to break the record just once, run it at 90 mph or more. Lol. Kinda like getting a new woman. ???

    Think I may have figured out an acceptable routine for injecting The OM whilst in truck.

    HAHAHAHAHA

    HAHAHAHAHA

    However I don't recommend attempting to pet for a little while afterward.

    Its a little blustery in WY this morning... I ran through the night to get pasted it, still had to take US30 around Elk Mtn. And it's apparently continued to gather steam since I checked it 4 hours ago.

    Looking back in the past 7 years I remember some bad winds, but it seems like Wyoming is really setting a new pace this year.

    Have to ask them why they allowed their truck to go that fast?
    What were they trying to do, scare you to death!
    Engine brake should’ve kicked on and slowed you back to 65ish, there’s gotta be a problem with that truck...

    probably why the truck was empty...
    A lot of places don’t like their truck going that fast anymore, though back in the day, I worked for a guy who would pay any ticket over 70, anything under you paid, but that’s when it was 55 and stay alive, and no point system
