Magnum ltd - fargo, nd

And we are governed to 63-ish. When my truck was new my gps would occasionally blip 64 then back to 63...but with 150k on the clock it occasionally blips 62 instead.

 

Tires worn down

 

Yep...but it seems like a speed drop more than one would expect at 150k. Usually a 2-3 mph drop from new to worn out is the norm... I've already lost almost 2 in a little over a year.

 

Mine stays on 64 and sometimes blips 63

Might be new math... but how is sometimes blipping 64 to sometimes blipping 62 almost 2? More like almost 1 but not quite....

To answer the question. Our trucks are governed at 63.5
I can walk away from most Magnum trucks though so I guess the old YMMV alllies
The 2017's are 62 on the petal and 64 on cruise control and they are all autos

 

My load is as confused and mixed up as usual. Load info said "temp controlled - N". Brokers says that I am picking up processed turkey, set it at 0. Get to the cold storage, it's a chicken load...shipper says -5 to -15. I was sent the incorrect delivery address from Magnum (who probably got the wrong address from the broker)..and the b/l doesn't show the delivery customer's name or ANY delivery address, only the company that the product is being bought by. (I am delivering to Cheney Bros, which is a food service distributor like U.S. Foodservice or Sygma. It took almost an hour to verify that I indeed had the correct load, and it took Google Maps to get the correct address and location. The customer is Benjamin Foods, which doesn't have any customer base in FL, they are a N/E based company). When I get to my delivery, they have my -10 load scheduled on the dry schedule, not the frozen. Now, before anyone says "stuff like this happens from time to time"...here, it's just the SOSDD for a load Magnum sends me. The only redeeming part...I am only an hour or so away from Casa de snackbar.

 

Well, since we don't have 1/2 a mph speedo's...I am guessing it's around 1.5 mph...or 1 mph per 100k. That means this truck will be 4 mph off if the tires last like they should.

 

So warning to FL perspective drivers, this is not a lane we travel in so if you don't have a flexible personality, well you have been warned....

 

For whatever reason our truck's can all be set up slightly different, it's just something you learn to deal with...I've had a 63 mph and a 64 mph truck here both. For some tires make the difference, but there are some true 63 mph truck's in the fleet eve with new drives.

 

1 mph drop would be sometimes blipping 64 to sometimes blipping 63... yours is 63 sometimes blipping 62.... so LESS than 1 mph
But whatever.....
On my truck info, it clearly says it's governed at 63.5

 

No...miss the part about "it's a SOSDD load Magnum sends me"? This kind of confused crap happens regularly...including loads to the"normal" operating areas this 3 ring circus regularly travels to.
