    You have no idea what you are talking about, my loads are between 13 and 14 feet high. I spend 3-4 miles crawling out of the woods then 20 to 40 going to the mill on the black road. So basically the only thing useless is that I took the time to reply to someone who thinks they know everything. :eek:)

    I'm sorry...You seem to have me confused with my friend REDD, He has a Volvo now and seems to like it just fine.
    I on the otherhand still have the fine lookin' KW that's pictured above.

    REDDs Volvo will do 87 MPH...How fast will YOURS go????? Hmmmmmmmm?:biggrin_2559:

    I agree, your friend, and mine, REDD is confused. Last I talked to him he was barking orders to some poor mechanic who was trying to get that Volvo in good enough shape to get to Queens. He was on the left coast somewhere I think and needed to be in Queens that night. 87mph...not enough!!!!:biggrin_2559:

    My Volvo is in the shop getting retrofitted with training wheels!!:biggrin_25525:

    Well for you guys that don't have to worry about being governed it's an easy thing to say "just stay back", but what you fail to understand is that we're most of the time on cruise control and yes it is very annoying when there's a mile or 2 difference in mph, you all just expect me and everyone else governed to never get out of the right lane to pass, even if the person in front of me is only going a mile or 2 an hour slower, get real that is feaking ridiculous.

    Wow, I'm way late on my resonse, missed a whole page of discussion on this one, sorry if I stirred the fire again, just saying it is tough to be governed, and very annoying but I can't be expected to hang in the right lane all day when I am running a bit faster than some of the motoring public. I agree that the whole issue of 65 is annoying, I can not stand it but that's the nature of the game where I work, I run local and our trucks are governed back 3 mph from our road trucks, don't much understand that but it's the way things go around here.
