I could pass anyone in my un-goverend Swift truck any day of the week, but I choose not to.

All the company trucks I drove were never governed. I told them during the interview "I refuse to drive a truck that was governed". They always, I mean always accommodated my requests. JB Hunt also gave me an expense account for Hotels, car rental, brothels..... ect.... you get my point. All you have to do is ask and tell them you know the secret password and your in like flint.

Actually my friend.... I was cruising down the road....flat ground....at about 65, and I did have one pass me!! It was a company truck....so I can only guess that maybe he got someone to turn the truck up for him.

I've even had a couple of Werners and USX's pass me....

a mechanic at a terminal in the pacific northwest turned off the governor on the first swift turtle i had. it's the one pictured in my avatar. it was fun watching other peoples' faces as i passed by them.

I call B.S. because swift monitors speed above 65 ...don't remember the exact speeds but at just a few mph over 65 the QC BEEPS and at about 70mph you get warning notices ...So how are you going fast enough to pass fast trucks ...or are you one of those 66mph trucks in the passing lane passing 62-64 mph trucks ?...This would explain the odd WTF! expression on faces .
