    I watched a video on youtube a few years ago of an unregulated high performance truck that was disguised as a regular swift truck. While on the highway, the truck would do 62 mph and when other trucks tried to pass it, it would speed up and leave the trucks in the dust. The guy had a camera by his driver window and he would capture the other drivers disbelief on how fast a swift was going. The last clip had a truck that matched the sleeper in speed in New Mexico. It was an old timer wearing a cowboy hat and he absolutely refused to get passed by a swift truck so they were neck and neck for a good minute until the old timer ended up passing him.

    anyone have this video? it got deleted from youtube awhile back and cant find it anywhere else.

    I've seen tons of youboob videos of trucks disguised as swifties that were stuck in the ditch. Does that count?

    You mean you're not the least bit fascinated by someone running an ungoverned truck for $.90/mile+FSC?
