75 mph???

ah nothing better than running from weatherford to el paso holding 100 still have throttle left turbo whistling,am and cb crackling.

 

My speedo goes to 105mph, and I've had it there.... but I set my cruise at 60mph and just let everyone pass me instead. It's a much more enjoyable drive instead of constantly changing lanes (which also draws unwanted attention) and having to play leap-frog with the drag-n-fly trucks or company guys. I get to where I need to be ontime and i get MUCH better MPG. But it is nice having that extra speed to get around that one driver who isists on yacking on his phone and floating between 55-65mph for 33 miles LOL

 

Dallas Forth Worth, 17R runway

 

500 horse, no gov, can get an extra 300-500 miles/ week. usually set cruise at 73. if ya hit a hill with a good head of steam ,you will pull it so much better !!!

 

You speed demons work too hard. Why would I want to get in an extra 300-500 miles a week??? especially when me going that fast will cost me an extra $400-$600 week in fuel. Then I'd just be working for free...... but then again I actually pay to run my truck. As a company man in a company truck, getting paid by the mile i might be in the same boat going that fast

 

if you own that rig,look up PDI or mr.haney.you'll get alot more power,pull and you can set your cruise @65 and not have to drop a gear pullin a hill.you'll save fuel money and possible ticket money

 

I would be difficult to justify my previous routine for anyone else but found that being able to move out at the legal speed limit increased my revenue by 20% over the year, hill climbing with heavy loads was also better with a larger engine and better gears.

 

company truck,Volvo,but I average 6 MPG and I been idling all night lately. too friggin' hot.

 

I agree 75 sure feels good and that's all the speed that I need.
