Well last night at 3:30AM I got a call from ADT security that my business alarm had a movement sensor triggered... Soo.. I got on the truck with wife and went to check.. Its like 9 miles from my house... I was driving like normal... no jumps no strong movements.... when I looked at the Speedometer I was doing 100MPH! so I pushed it a little more... to 110 :)

normal driving time its like 10-12 minutes...

last night from the moment we got the call till we arrived... 8 Minutes... we made it out of the house in 3 minutes... so 5 minutes driving time :)

and all was fine.... don't know what triggered the alarm... we arrived before the police :)

Let me tell you... its the 1st time I drive at 110 MPH.. and the truck was like doing 60 or so... I'm loving it :)...

+1 please be smart. In an accident, there are actually three crashes. The rate your car is traveling, which means when you hit something, your organs also hit at the same speed, and everything in your car.

I know a few of those sec systems will get tripped if something falls off a shelf.

It sucks. It cuts off there or lower on mine. My car went to 120 and the Durango had superchips so I never reached it. The ram is smooth at that speed. My Durango was another story. My car ran up there like it was going 60. I miss it lol

These trucks are rock solid in a straight line even at 142 MPH (GPS verified, don't ask for details) but if you need to swerve or jam on the brakes you'd be in HUGE trouble.

^The trucks motor and trans can handle that... the tires are the weak point unless your speed rated.

Sadly, Eduardo is no longer with us. He died in a traffic accident while responding to another false alarm. Via con Dios mi amigo.

I've had the Charger up to 120 and if feels the same as 80. Only had the truck up to 100, but just for a second.

You need a tuner to unlock the speed limiter. I have mine opened up to 140 mph, but I've never been over 100.
