    I used to run 80..... my guy turned them down. No way I was running 65 to cali and back every week. My 4 day work week would turn into 5. I left to a local guy and he turned them down too. I’m hourly now so I say turn them down more

    Congratulations Flipex! Now you've gone and slowed down to a more normal speed! Now, I know this is a big change for some of you. Do you think, for your next trick, you could stay in the right lane with all the other 65 mph trucks, instead of drag racing JB Hunt for 10 miles, holding everyone else up? That would be so awesome of you to consider!

    Contractor lied to you both, if you get a ticket or an accident above 65mph the contractor that owns the truck will have to pay a 25000 fine, as a result some have turned theirs down, nobody at my hub has they will all run the speed limit in every state.
