I rarely see trucks doing less than 59-60 in Cal, with cops blowing by without a glance.
In states like ID or MT, they fly by me like I am sitting still...and I am doing 65.
Let me rephrase the question: have you ever received a ticket for doing 3mph over? 4 mph? 5?
I suppose I could ask a cop....but no....lol.
The boat does 0 mph...blown motor.
It's for sale for $2500.
Hit me up.
How fast is too fast?

to the op....nope...but back in my wild days...i wasnt only doin 3 or 4 over.....

I paid $4000 for a 15 minute ride this summer before it blew up.
Got it on video too.
Now I can relive the giant money toilet that is boating.
Sweet boat though.... -
I have talked with drivers with un-governed trucks that will do 75+ through some states. I rolled down a hill once and did close to that for about 3 seconds...still under the speed limit.
Scared the hell out of me. Too fast for my blood.
On the other hand, 75 on the water is fun.TRKRSHONEY Thanks this. -
last trk we drove was set at 78...we ran I ~ 10 from TX to CA....all the way to the ca border we ran 75.... that trucks was slow comparelimit)d to most we have driven....but even with a faster trk..thats usually about where we set it at (depending on the speed limit)

Hey Jet460 you know the two best days for a boat owner is the day they buy it and the day they sell it ! I fix them all of the time there fun , but they can be expensive ! a friend told me its like doing coke if you can't take a hundred dollar bill and throw it in the trash and not miss it don't do it !you can't afford it !
jet460 Thanks this. -
I have an 07 FL. You sit up very high and it is a very loud, rough riding truck.
I rode in a Volvo last week, and it was like being in a car.
Could barely hear the engine, and that thing was smoooth. -
yeah no offense but IMO freightliners suck...LOL have driven them before...they are LOUD rattle boxes....Volvo's are nice riding quiet trks....i prefer a 379or 389 pete. ( see the purple trk on my profile ) or a w900L KW....
the white pete in my sig line was a triple digit trk....we usually set it on about 4 to 5 over .... -
I am basically driving the Ford F150 of big rigs..lol.Giggles the Original Thanks this.
