Turned down to 62mph
Company wants to turn down trucks to 62mph to save on fuel, prices are so high these days, my question is how many companies plan to do something like this..... 65 to me was slow enough now 62... next will be 58

Put a kid through collage. Btw that doesn't mean next year they won't bring it down to 55mph, and they will if they can keep getting cheap labor. About a profession thing!!! dont you have to have a profession to leave a peofession. If I had a profession I would not be driving a truck.
