    I agree. At 70 feels like things happen to fast. Maybe I'm getting slower, idk.

    Last two trips to Arizona and back CB was alive and everyone was calling out those running radar. Was a wonderful thing.

    65-68 is plenty fast for me. I run mostly recaps. I shoot for 500 miles per day, take 12-14 hours off and do it again... and again.. and... I am just not in a big hurry out here. I make a nice weekly check, and don't kill myself to do it.

    Putting signs closer would seriously affect revenue and trooper productivity.

    Want to speed? Pull a low-pro stepdeck with the 17.5 tires. Empty they can take 70+ mph. Load it down and you will want to run 68 max, unless you like talking to the tire guys in the side of the road.
     
    Bean Jr. Thanks this.

    You know something, I call them out. Just a hopper/covered wagon guy. Still alot of radio talk. Noticed alot of bull racks not on the radio around me anymore.

    But alot of steel haulers in the rust belt still holding thier own.

    One of these days, an app for when to wipe my ### is coming out. It will. If you need speed trap apps, and simply not follow the trillion speed limit signs out there, you may need a wipe my ### app.
