    *&^%^ Speed Limiters!!

    Oh, I know that, I was just musing, it really would be a lot of fun!! I am not in a panic over this either. I do have serious safety concerns. The entire idea goes against everything that I was taught on how to drive. I was taught that there are 4 main tools to accident avoidence. 1: your...

    *&^%^ Speed Limiters!!

    I almost always drive below the speed dictated by ON and QC. I drive with two major goals in mind, safety and fuel mileage. I do enjoy the peace of mind knowing that I have a LOT of engine left to get me out of trouble fast if the situation requires that. Once my engine is "castrated" that...

    California IS a HUGE problem. They are not in complinance with interstate commerce laws and NO ONE seems to be doing anything about it. The Obama administration is allowing them to do as they please in reguards to CARB and few if any of our Senators, Congressmen or trucking industry...

    Schwarzenegger for president

    Reguardless of the facts, polititions in general, and Barry in particular, are "sleezoids" and cannot be trusted alone with you son or daughter and certainly NOT with your life. They are ONLY interested in power and control and do not have YOUR best interest in mind. While it would be difficult...

    Light steelhead tackle works best there. I use a 9' rod that is rated for 4-8lb line. I fish a 6lb main line with a 4lb fluorocarbon leaders. Layoutshooter

    Cold Creek is near Sandusky, it runs into Lake Erie. The stretch of water between the waterfall and the Lake is only about 800 yards long. It is a spring that is only about 8 miles long from where it rises to the Lake. It stays around 45 degrees all year around. Nice 3-5 trout with steelhead in...

    I am just disapointed that safety is NOT the main concern here. The loss of 25% of your accident avoidence package is not a good thing. I gues I should expect that though, not a real surprise. When you consider that this is being put upon us by a government and a large corporation it is easy to...

    *&^%^ Speed Limiters!!

    Thanks a lot buddy!!!!! LOL! I can hardly wait. I love being looked upon as being too stupid to drive at or under the speed limit without an on board nanny and/or they assuming that I intend to break the law. You know, assumption of guilt rather than assumption of innocence. I am just soooo...

    anybody moving out there?

    We are moving pretty darn well. 3-4 loads per week and our Pay per mile continues to be higher than last year and the difference is increasing. We have a load for Monday, a little shorty, we will see what happens. We did the same thing last week. Ran a short run on Monday followed up by two good...

    I am trying to consider the source and or sources. I just want some first hand answers. Is anyone out there running a limited truck? Have you noticed any loss of performance on hills? Accelerating on ramps? Any loss in mileage? Layoutshooter

    *&^%^ Speed Limiters!!

    Now that we have little choice in the matter of limiting or not limiting our truck can someone please explain these goofy things to me? I read in here that some are saying that they are losing fuel mileage and performance. Can this happen? With all engines? I have an MBE4000-450. I spoke with...

    Speed Limiter Phone Calls

    We going to limit the truck for now. I still don't understand the loss of performance noted in a prior post. That would be enough to be dangerous. I will have to watch the mpg as well. We have been getting the mileage up to very high levels and to lose too much there could offset any gain from...

    How does the limiter hurt performance like that? I am confused. I thought it only limited the top speed of the top gear only. Please explain. Layoutshooter

    Speed Limiter Phone Calls

    We were told that they MIGHT take away the Glove status for trucks that do not put the limiter on. They sorta backed away from that when we talked to them the following day. They then stated that they were still checking into the option but had yet to make up thier minds on that. They are...
