Well you are right it is about 1400 miles and I made it staying the speed limit in 21 hours, but that was to FT Worth and Dallas is another hour or so. You should make it back by Wed. if you left on Friday or Sat.

Injected is nice, But I'd rather be BlownÃ‚Â

You'll be happy to know, Shue, that Radar detectors are legal to use in Texas, however they may not be used in commercial vehicles.

Does the truck have commercial plates?

And laser jammers are legal to use in Texas too, if you got one. :guns

Nah, we're not commerically tagged, except for the Peterbilt.

PJ just called and said the speed limit is 80 in Texas... :good

Ã‚Â Ã‚Â I don't think the box van will do that (maybe downhill)... :laugh

Are you going to try to travel during the day?

Speed limits change at night I think it is 65, in the day 80 for cars and trucks 60 at night and 70 or 75 in the day.
