Correction .Drop to 8th for 45. I'm still living in 10 speed land. 8th on 9 speed is same position on stick as 9 in 10 speed.

I fly through Virginia and Pennsylvania and such cause I set it up at about 65 and ZOOM.
That's with maybe 30,000 in the box though.
Near gross like they have you running around I'd probably be in the 40's going over the longer grades at the top.
I did one a few weeks ago I was pretty heavy, like 78,000, but I rolled across 80 in PA with 0 problem.
Everyone back east talks about Snoeshoe like it's some big hill, I went over it at 50.
Now if I lose my momentum, that's a different story, then I will be in 7th or 8th in the 20's.UturnGirl Thanks this. -
I don't think I want to involve leasing company. I've learned to play close to the vest. -
Means all ecm parameters that cut down on power and try to get better fuel mileage are turned on..........
Dave_in_AZ and UturnGirl Thank this. -
Thanks cat sdp. Definitely going to get that looked at.

What's that engine rated at?
Now be careful what you tell Kenworth.
Cause they can change the programming where you will have all the power in the world, but it will drink fuel.
Just ask if you are getting full HP in 9th gear.UturnGirl Thanks this. -
Mama said there'd be days like this.
Us64 baldknob arkansas. ..That name always gives me pause... Speed limit 55 cops out in droves. I've got my cruise on 55 and letting everybody else hate me as they push it up to 60. So there's a super rough patch on a 2 lane narrow bridge tons of traffic and I'm kind of powering through the mess and my truck was up in the air when he clocked me. 62mph.
He pulled me over and I begged for mercy. So he does an eld log check. I'm thinking I've got that covered. When he comes back he has given me a warning but I haven't put in my trailer # bol# and commodity description..ever..I didn't know how or which button and just didn't think about it. He hit me for 7 days yes 7 times a hit on dac or whatever plus he put on it that I got an official warning for 62 in 55... the tattle tale.
While all this is going on my dog is barfing inside my sleeping bag. -
It's the same on paper.
See Landstar monitors all that. If you get enough violations in house, you get retraining, if it continues you get voted off the island.
But that's always been the law.

I noticed that you said you didn't put in commodity. Mine doesn't have a place for commodity. Do I need to type it in or is the bol good enough?
