Hey, you passed that Prime Florists truck like that rose smelling biotch was standing still!

Woo hoo! You are still faster than the flower guy!

I was thinking about you last week as we drove through Indiana and were passed by trucks doing 75+!

I have actually passed several Prime Trucks!! They are lease operators trying to conserve fuel!

Rick, They won't even let me on the race track without flashing yellow lights on my roof!

Sally, at least in New England, there is so much traffic that it doesn't hurt so much because they tend to go slower than the Westerners.. I will not go west in this truck!!

Shut up Aaron!! Or I will cut your coax!! :)

I think I read on a Prime driver's blog that a lot of their company trucks are governed back to 62 mph-shoot I didn't even KNOW they had company trucks.

Last week I could pretend I had a big truck 'cause at 67 mph I was the fastest thing going (whoop-whoop chicken truck!). It's been in the shop this week so it has probably been recalibrated to 65. It's amazing all these guys that used to claim they could get better fuel mileage at 75+ mph are suddenly settin' that cruise at 65 and below. Evidently they suddenly remembered how to do long division (or work the calculator!).

Huh, Gab, I thought they were all lease operators...too! And last week, I put my truck in the shop (couldn't regen the exhaust system at such a low rpm, due to being cut back) so I stumbled into a 70 mph truck for 2 days!!!! Oh, I felt like I was flying again, but just as quickly, it was taken away from me, and turned down!! And actually, my truck does get better fuel mileage at 68, than at 61.... Must be alllllll those hills I run.
