Well the three trucks i've got now
W9L 18spd 4.10 tall 24.5
T800 10 sp 3.70 short 24.5
9400 13 sp 3.70 tall 22.5
all three tach 1500 at 65 in the big hole weird huh.
they will all run out of numbers speedos only go to 80 though.

But I seldom run over 70 anymore and a lot of the time 65 it is a lot cheaper.

Hey, we should be enjoying the cheap fuel while we still can. The price is gonna bounce around no matter what we do.

I think I've been up to 100 with mine. I jambed the speedo needle against the trip meter reset button once. Was a little strange because it was very smooth at that speed.

On other ocasions I did stay around 80 for extended periods if I was in a hurry. The truck just doesn't feel the speed anymore.
