    I think he was talking about the slowing down to save money vs going faster and possibly getting a extra load.

    My truck can do tripple digits but why? I'll stay going 57 in the middle lane.

    Really now. That's one heck of a claim. Why don't ya back that one up with some math? I'd be interested in your gearing numbers.

    Perhaps, but the post he quoted had nothing to do with rates or loads.

    How would you know when your speedometer only registers 90 and that is if it is a freightliner? are you guesstimating? what gearing is that? pictures carry clout. we need to see a picture of your gauges in action.
