    Hey Y'all, I have a friend that drives a company truck that is way to slow, Is there a quick way that he can turn his truck up while on the road & turn it back down when he gets back to his terminal? I have no restrictions being a Owner, I rode with him the other day & I wouldn't drive that truck 20 miles that way, I'd never make any money. He has a Freight Shaker with a Mercedes engine.

    I didn't team with him, he just gave me a ride to get my truck that was getting new tires put on, matter a fact if he gets fired, I will hire him in a minute. He has been a long time friend of mine also he just had a divorce & lost it all with help of a X . So he sold his truck & had to go to work as a company driver. Too many rules out there today & seems like there's not many old Outlaws like me left. Have A Nice Day !
