Default Schneider goes 60 MPH...

Sure you've heard about Schneider turning down their trucks down to 60 mph tops.

Which one of the larger carriers will be next?

thought there was a time when all schneider trucks maxed out at 55mph. I think it was in the 1980's.

I think I might turn my truck down to 60 mph, just so I don't feel left out of the fun....

Make it 61mph, this way you can do the county wide pass and jam up the BBRs and all the 4wheelers.

Wasn't JB and Swift the last one's to come up from 55 mph? Looks like they are headed right back that direction. Gonna be bad news in a lot of places with the speed limit for cars being 70+ Cars doing at least 75 in those areas and trucks doing 55..............
