The load in the back kept it pretty straight but I would not recomend EVER doing it in a truck. Things happen way to fast at that speed for you to react and the slightest mistake can have severe penalties. I was lucky you may not be if you ever do that. The only reason that truck rand that fast was do to the engine and tranny and gearing combo. She was set up with a 444 Cummions turned up by Bruce at Diesel Injection of Pittsburgh to around 700HP 13 double OD trans and 3.55 gears on 24.5 big rubber.

1,000,000 miles / 39 months = 25,641 miles per month. Care to explain how you managed that? :roll: I smell B.S. |
It was39 months before I made trainer not before I hit the million mile mark Rev. Also the reason I was forced off the road was due to Epilepsy a medical condition so unless you can walk a mile in my shoes do not go there. Try having a condition where you do not know when where or if you will lose all control of your body tear your shoulder to pieces maybe put your arm threw a plate glass window and for fun bite your tounge off. You also have to remember I was running as a trainer and I recieved credit for those miles in my calculations since I got paid solo rate on those miles made my life nice on the paycheck.

Wow - I'm so impressed. :roll: |
When I was little, I remember seeing this American guy going way faster than 100mph; And his rig weighed much more than 80,000lbs.
I,m not sure of his exact speed or indeed the size of his rig But I do distinctly remember his words when he finally stopped. He said "This is one small step for man...... :lol: :lol: :lol: |
Rev I did end up with one million miles driven however you are the kind of driver that makes my blood boil you ruthlessly attack yet I imagine you are the kind of driver who one is always screaming about the lack of parking in a truckstop when there are plenty of spaces besides the front row. 2 complain when you are forced to wait in line to get loaded and 3 actually wait to recieve a dispatch I for one never compalined and was able to be rehired for all the companies that I drove for do to my customer service skills more than one time I had a customer ask for me to haul a load. In fact I had a the pleasure of more than one time hauling the first load into a new customer for the carrier I was driving for. I never was placed OOS for either a log book or equipment issue in the time I was out there I chewed out more than one shop foreman for not wanting to repair something that was saftey related. I took pride in my job and if I did not have my current condition would still be out there training a new batch of drivers the right way not the school way of how to drive.
