    I thought Ruby Tuesday was a song from the 60's by The Rolling Stones.

    Um, no. JCW's truck is governed at 57 mph. Was like that when he got it (at only 25k, makes you wonder about the driver that got it new....)

    I finally got a truck. My choices were an old beater that had three months on it, several different lightweights, including three brand new KW's, and one brand new Cascadia condo. I chose the new Cascadia. It's dark gray, and my friends have started calling it the Gray Ghost. So far, I have taken a load to Hartford and have another for Taylor, PA. It will take a while to really settle in, but so far, so good.

    Im curious how can you have a lead foot when being governed at 62mph enough to get it lowered by the company to 57mph? Do you mean flooring it to much from a dead stop and accelerating to quickly? Even so why lower the max mph how will that stop this driver from doing that?

    You think it takes just as much fuel to run at 57 as it does 62?
