    Our trucks never had speed limiters O_______________o

    What Aguilar3 said LOL


    I only know about the rev limiter. Mine is at 6250rpm's on my 22RE. but I've never hit it in 4th gear doing a top speed run.

    come on, this cant be a serious question. Why the **** are you putting everyone in danger with your bull**** driving. GTFOH with your nonsense.

    You sign up to a mini truck forum and ask how you can endanger the lives of everyone around you by driving over 100 mph on a 24 yr old truck?

    whoa... you got the need for speed huh?:runaway: haha nah but i admit, i've burried my speedometer before but it was kinda sketchy. i don't think the trucks were designed to go that fast so one lil dip in the road or avoiding something on the road might end in a bad way.:doah: all i gotta say is, just be careful.

    Gta bury the needle once in a while for the adrenaline fix. But of course only wen no ones around or our spots we have. Just be curteous and of course careful. Not many of us have v6s on here.

    Re-label the speedometer for kilometers per hour, but make it say "miles" instead of kilometers.
