Is this too fast when you're towing 9,000lbs? :confused:

yes

nah ...

what's the latest on the Cruzah ? any pics

- jack

That depends on how fast you are planning on stopping that runnaway freight train:D Maybe a mile or two:rasta:

Think you know the answer to that... :eek: :flipoff2:

Holy crap batman! Imagine how long it would take u to stop that thing....yikes. that is scary fast

All that and only 2700 RPM's......... God I love it :smokin: :smokin: :smokin:

It's a perfect speed..... For CHIT CHAT. :flipoff2:

Hey Camo - Lance wants to be banned!! :D

Paul

Lance--

What exact model truck was that, and what was the cargo bein hauled?

I bet it's a weee bit fast, but it's still pretty cool :eek:
Pete

what gears do you have in that thing :confused:

3.73s in my F350 are limited at 95 mph :( Damnit..

I say punch it!! I firewall it all the time when towing.. just plan on going through whatever gets in your way rather than stopping or going around! :D :D :D

Not if it's a cummins!! Looks like an '01 or '02?

It's a 2001 Cummins 6 spd. towing a Haulmark enclosed trailer with a rig, a 4x4 quad, rollaway tool box, gear, etc.

Bingo!! And with the HO 6 speed they can go another 10-15 MPH but I wouldn't know anything about that officer!! :D

Please tell me it has an EGT gauge. Or that you didn't pull any hills or maintain that speed for long!! Or it's modded. :)

Too Fast?????

Depends on who took the photo!!

Lance if you took it (and you were driving) then I would say yea almost too fast.

:smokin:

Sam

If it's a factoy eth/dee it doesn't need an egt guage. It'll do that all day, not like I'd know!

how much boost was that thing screaming at?! dang lance, my truck wont go that fast empty and downhill!

No...Unless you don't like to replace the clutch after every event:flipoff2:

the stock dodge can take that all day and go a good bit faster. my chevy will do it no problem. but it will cost about a dollar a minute with the 454 and 4.10s with no o.d.

good call dude....thats how i lost my *#$% #%%@^#% @#%#%@ @%!^@ license in my ram w\ cummins

Be honest....
That was coming down the hill from Moonrocks, right?:eek:

Now we just need live action to watch the fuel guage drop just as fast:flipoff2:

Just turn the brake controller up to just shy of locking up the tires and haul ass. That Haulmark will stop you.

Which Haulmark was it, and what rig did you have in it?

Hell no that dodge gets it:flipoff2: :eek:

well it might be to fast............it depends on how many cars they are using for the road block ahead of you :D:D:D

Don't you just love passing cars towing uphill at 85 MPH in your Cummins? My 2000 Cummins with a 6 speed will pull any hill without any problems. Last dyno run, I did 302 HP and 670 ft/lb of torque at the rear wheels. Let's just say I've got some goodies to make the engine run better than stock.... ;) ;) ;)

Hey get a CHIP and you can say goodbye to the limiter. I have a F250 with 3.73 and the 6 Speed and well it just runs better in the tripple digest :flipoff2: :flipoff2:

Thank god the summit of Donner was fogged in or else I would have gotten a ticket rather than the bitching at for going to fast by the locoal trooper :flipoff2:

My prayer before bed tonight: Dear God, please don't ever let me be on the same road as Lance when he is towing! Amen.

J. J.

lance, your good to go, i felt perfectly fine doin 95 in my powerstroke..... just dont want to explain to 50 why i was doin that if i ever get stopped :eek:

see, ohh and i was eating a hogie, while takin that pic :flipoff2:

Yeah, no shit :confused:

Nope not fast enough. The trailer tires didn't melt causing you to swerve violently and taking out an entire family in the process.

Good thing no troopers saw you, my guess is they would have locked you up and impounded your shit.

Too bad all the boopers on this website are going to see this and think damn it's cool to drive 5 tons barrelling down the highway at near out of control speeds.

actually its closer to 8 tons.... if ya count the weight of the rig too... :D

now as far as fools seeing this as cool or whatever..... there is a time and place for everything.... i wouldnt be doin those speeds on an acess highway, nor in heavy traffic..... but when on a restricted access highway, with minimal traffic 85 mph cruising speed is not that all bad.... my truck stops great with those trailer brakes.... i would rather see Lance doin 100mph than riding the tail of a vehicle doin 65..... this is where most accidents happen (following too close) the pic i took was for fun... it was a brief section, then i slowed her back down to 75-80.... :D

ohh crap my bad, i am at work and on one of the computer monitors all you see is the rig on that trailer and not the tow rig so it looks like it is sitting still.. but i am on another one now and can see the tow rig and all.... b4 it just looked like there was a truck sitting there and all... sorry, my apoligies...

gotcha, but if you look a little more you will see that the speedo is burried.... and the tach is up there..... and the hogie in my left hand..... i had a full tank of fuel too.... :D

Only 98 MPH? What a pussy!! :flipoff2: :flipoff2:

bwa hahahaha id like to see the tow rig do that.... :D and anyting ive done those kind of speeds on, (motorcycles mainly) i sure as hell wouldnt be looking at the sign as i passed it...lol

That would be scary! I have done 172 in a 96 RT/10 Viper. Rock solid. Cost me my hat and sunglasses though. Got sucked off at 125. :(

lol yeahh you can loose things at that speed.... in a full tuck at 170 its not a good idea to just sit up, hell even siting up at 120 is pretty forcefull on ya.... sort of like a wind break...lol

Hell, last time I drove to FL on I-75 I had a semi pass me doing about 120 through southern GA. I was doing 90 and he just about blew me off the road.

Is this too fast?<p>

Passing Silverthorn in Co about to start up 13 miles of 6% slope when no one is around I hit the bottom of the hill bumping my governor on my pickup at 99MPH. If no one is around it feels just like pulling at 80 like I always do.

Too fast:confused:

How about with no enclosed, or other stuff in/on trailer other than the Jeep, but with the camper on? Saw just slightly over a hundred. That actually was scary. I was passing a motorhome that decided to speed up as I passed on the way to Moab. My pumped 454 dually passes lot's of stuff except gas stations. Especially at those speeds.
