    Cruise 59 mph. Mashed 2 da floor, 64 mph. And I get a Qualcomm message telling me there were only 4 drivers with more overspeed pings. Said corporate was coming down hard. So I'm thinkin.......Hell, I'm not a stockholder..I'm goin for number one. Feel like that Amish horse n buggy with the reflective triangle in the back. anybody guess Schneider? Sure could use a lil more speed on those Mizzura hills. "Missouri"

  3. Their suppose to be a speed limiter on my truck. Hmmm. Guess I'll look for it some day. Only had a state trooper stop me for passing swift up hill. Told me to watch the slower trucks, ya might scare them.

    uploadfromtaptalk1430409998345.jpg it helps to not be limited when your trailer comes around. You can pull her straight.
    Limiters prevent this.

    I rarely run through Michigan Mr. Scott Steiner, as a matter of fact I avoid Michigan like the plague because of the excessive law enforcement and 60 mph speed limit.

    Plus the patrol cars look goofy as tell and I feel that one day I'm gonna get pulled over for pointing and laughing at a patrol car.

    I pretty much stay Midwest to western states so that's why I asked to be turned up to the speed limits.
