My KJ doesn't even lock up in OD until 65mph.....


That's right, most newer vehicles are geared for the higher highway speeds, 60-70mph+

I don't mind reasonable speed limits, but I think it should be left up to the state to set them. If they bring back the 55mph speed limit, they claim it will save gas. I don't think it will. What little bit it does save, people will think they can drive a little more, since they are getting better millage, so the end result will be a wash. Most of them don't have any good ideas, they are going to do it even if it doesn't work, just to make it look like they are trying. Just like when they mandated ethanol without realizing the consequences.

I know mine doesnt like 55 at all, doesn't run right at that speed, I have mine trained to run best at 72, thats the "sweet spot" where it just sits and cruises along with no poblems, also where I get the best mileage!, well maybe better at 35 but WTH wants to drive at that speed.

I CAN'T DRIVE 55!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :wink:
