Only on i95
Only in the far left lane.
Only if there is a Schneider & Swift next to me on the right.
& only during a curve with jutted out walls on both sides. Yelling in a bad fake Brooklyn accent.

I drive a triple digit truck, I run 64 because that is the sweet spot that gives me over 8 mpg with 40,000 in the box. F U , I ain't slowing down for your dumb ### when you try to pass me in your 64.5 mph truck. I really don't give a darn how much traffic your stupid butt stacks up.
When I come up on you, I hammer it and get it done, then resume my plodding along.scottied67 Thanks this. -
I'm trying to slow slow down to 64, just am not having any success

Even now in an ungoverned truck I have the common courtesy and common sense to back off a couple of miles an hour, let them complete the pass, AND allow them to get ahead at least six seconds before resuming my cruise control speed. So WHAT if they cause me to slow it down for a mile or two? The point is that overall they are running faster than I either choose or can run.
Let them run. Maintain my space. Allow traffic to flow around me. NOTHING else matters.RustyChops41, ShooterK2, peterd and 2 others Thank this. -
Cruise control brother, it's way better at saving fuel than I ever was.
