Truck won't go over 80-82 MPH

Yep. I get passed often. I dont take risks. I pass only when i have at least a mile of open road in the other lane. Others, not so much.

 

I call them the bait car

 

Up here we call them "the rabbit"

 

I haven’t gone 80+ with the stock intake. Only the aftermarket one. That’s the only mod I’ve done to the truck. Bought it from a dealership too if that helps. Car fax is clean and everything.

 

I can do 82 mph…. eventually

 

Yep. Bear bait.

 

Carfax only works if it’s reported. I bought a vehicle once and it had a clean Carfax. One day the vehicle was in the right light and I learned the roof was severely damaged.

 

Don't you mean I just put in an intake wrong, and that's it.

 

Speed limit on I-84 here in connecticut varies from 55 to 65 mph. Everyone does 75 + anyways. Seems nearly everyday theres a wreck where there are posted speed changes.

 

Ok, lets throw some numbers out there. 90 mph is 132 feet per second, it takes you and your brain a minimum of 1/2 second to figure out what you're looking at, then it takes way more then a half a second to get your foot onto the brake peddle, then its takes a half a second for the truck to even begin compressing the suspension, then stopping begins.
There's a second and a half, so 160 feet ish to start stopping at 90 mph. I feel real safe.

 

Our states speed limit is 65 mph. At 90, that far over you will no longer get a ticket for speeding...by law you can be arrested. Really depends on the cop if they want to give you a break, and write you up for a lesser charge of speeding....and yes i did my fair share back in the day getting charged with speeding in connecticut, plus twice in one day when going, and coming back from the fish house n.y. hare scramble races.

 

I've never tried it but in the app it looks you can limit top speed for different drivers, valet, friends, family, etc.

 

82 is plenty fast. You need a Fast car that goes fast. If you want to go fast. Do you want to go fast?

 

Like how this dude has an issue and everyone here is debating speed limits lol

 

what gear

what rpm on tach

didU have parking brake off

300 lb g/f along for the ride

 

All i know is this v6 tacoma will blow the doors off my old 4.7 v8 tundra once speeds get above 45 mph. I was amazed how fast it got up to 90 with a lot left.

 

My 2018 TRD Sport is very happy on the few occasions I do 100.

 

Engine!

 

Seriously this gone to shit

 

Don’t you want to hear my story of doing 160 on the backroads of Nevada?
