I refuse to exceed 80 for any reason on a public road with a speed limit of 65. It accomplishes nothing other than wasting gas. Maybe some people feel the need to drive at some retarded speed on a public road to make up for other deficiencies in their life but I don't see the point.

 

110, never again with 285's. i thought my truck was gona blow up.

 

You also live in CT. where people sit in the left and middle lanes and do 55 when everyone else is trying to do 65-70mph.

CT and MA are the worst of the continuous 48 for their driving.

 

I save an hour by doing 85-90 when I go home.

Speed limit is 70. Traffic flow in the left hand lane is 80-85. Middle lane 75-80.

Welcome to Florida's section of I-75. Haul *** or get your *** out of the way.

 

I hit 100 mph ONCE and never again! My truck was shaking like a lumber wagon.

 

Its a little different if you have a speed limit high enough and a roadway designed to accommodate such speeds. But around here, it is impractical, dangerous, way over the limit, and exceeding 80 is a reckless driving arrest, not a ticket.

 

wreckless op is 100 or over in ohio

 

75 tops, no need for going any faster.

 

i think i got mine up to 86 passing a semi one time.

 

amen to that here in jax everyone hauls *** man... once your on the interstate if your going 80 mph then your getting past by everyone lol.... avg cruising speed is about 85 or so and the fast lane at least once and hour you will see someone going 100+ but ive only gotten my 2.5 up to 105 going down a very big bridge lol 96 or so everywhere else but in my FJ i hit 120 with easeeeee

 

HI!... I've hit 98MPH in the 2007 Ranger, dam speed limiter. That will be gone soon. lol!

I've gone 154MPH in my F-150, GPS verified.

Gone over 160MPH in my PRO STREET RANGER.

 

Let me clarify my earlier posts . . .

140 KPH (about 87 MPH) is the limit set by the governor in my truck.

Knowing that, it kind of answers the OP's question about how fast the truck can go - no need to check it out, the computer won't let you go faster.

Now of course, you can modify or override the limiter. Question is, do you really need to? Or want to?

I've never felt the need to do so - I'm comfortable with it. If you want to do so, that's OK too.

But there will be very stiff penalties if you're caught testing those limits on public roads; there are penalties if you're caught going as fast as the speed governor allows, even.

I don't mind the governor - I generally will not exceed about "10 over" (that's kilometers per hour - about 6-7 mph) of whatever given limt of the road I'm on.

And even at that speed, I'm far from the fastest driver on whatever road I'm on.

 

90ish in the ranger, and 125 in a 1997 saab 9000aero

 

lol why do people post speeds other than there rangers that's all i wanna know about, and testing your speed once or twice is not a bad thing just don't make a habit of it, oh and lol you guys wont believe this i was going about 90-95 and this cop passes me going about 110 in the middle lane he just looks over at me and smiles its like 5 am

 

lol, i wanna see an FJ running 120 around here in jax. thats a sight to see.

 

70 mph in a 70mph... oh wait i am not stupid enough to post about speeding in print WOW...

 

lol
101
35s
4.88s
no doors add that to the list of stupid **** I've done that could have instantly killed me..

off a mountain pass.


86 since the sas..

 

you can't get in trouble for it.

 

hmm. i dont really see why its bad to post it in print. if anyone that could do anything about it, saw it, im pretty sure they cant make it stick in court. other than it being typed on the internet, they never saw you, or clocked you going that fast.

 

exactly its nothing more than mere speculation as far as they know we could all drive the speed limit and simply just say we speed all the time so no worries bro lol

 

well idk cuz mine only says 85!!!!

 

85mph on a residential street, 30mph speed limit at night. Never again...prob the dumbest thing I have ever done, lucky nothing happened.

 

i know i don't have a 4.0 but i still wanted to chime in....

167.... 2003 Z06 Special Edition Corvette....would've gone faster but ran out of highway (all while listening to Sweet home Alabama)

120+ in 65 stang' 289....stock (speedo topped at 120 but needle was still going)

110 1994 Grand Am SE w/ram air.....(damn governor)

103 GPS verified in my 2.3 Ranger (long straightaway with slight slope)

 

112 mph.

 

117 in my truck on 35s.

stupid thing to do. now i might be lucky to hit 80 on the interstate. speeding is pointless. maybe that is just a sign of getting old.
