Unless there a safety reason or a mechanical/electronic failure.
In which case, you should have your hazard lights on,
your air horn and high beam activated periodically. -
I did changed the setting to 75 in Sparks NV at the Volvo dealer.
It was 62 from the factory. That's how I ordered it.
I agreed with the State trooper that 62 is just too low.
On a side note, Manitoulin had their 90 kms/h (56MPH)
put on notice by Alberta government for running too low in a
province with a speed limit of 110 kms/h (68MPH).
It was considered unsafe. -

My QUALCOMM would have triggered an alert at 90.
I was buying the fuel, of course.
Conclusions:
The truck performed flawlessly.
I totally loved it and I decided that's my preferred speed from now on.
The Schneiders of the world that I passed, they were looking at me like I was a Speed Demon.
Great memories as long as nobody got hurt in the process.
