    not many companies that i've heard about will govern or attempt to govern a truck that isn't theirs.

    Gordon is set to 65 and even the owner ops have to sign an agreement stating they won't go faster either... I would love to drive a ungoverned truck as long as I wasn't paying for fuel!

    I pass a bunch of them and they seem to be in that 65-68 range for the most part....I'm guessing thats where they are governed but I'm not 100% for sure on that.
