So...You were just out for a relaxing Sunday cruise and all of a sudden you felt the need for speed??? I like the way you roll Dale. You are a steely-eyed trucker

I know the adrenalin was pumping. You must have that magic chip that cut you off at 110, I do like you truck, looks very nice.

With my warmed up 350 I've run through the gears a few times east of town. Haven't done 110, but 90 comes up quicker than I thought it would.

Were you on your way to the beach to sell more water and take more pics? That would be justifiable!
