Wooooah. Yeah. I saw a guy at a shop trying to get his truck reprogrammed. I didn't really listen in, but it sounded like the tech was refusing, because they driver couldn't prove he owned the truck. From what I understand, some shops won't modify company/lease trucks.

I guess I could make a 65mph truck work. I'm not overly worried about that. With all the grades and construction, there's no point in going too crazy.

Once you start pulling a smooth bore tank you will find lots of reasons not to go too crazy. The only problem I would have with QC micromanagement is the over 65 dropping down a hill. Sometimes its just safer to let it roll with the jakes out west with a 75 MPH speed limit.

Agreed. Fortunately, I will be staying within 300 or so miles of my home terminal.

When I worked for Knight Reefer and Marten, I would frequent Chicago. I loved the 45mph zones. I would just go about 47-48 and let everyone fly around me.
