They all seem to vary a bit

112mph, 96 Indy, got there with out too much trouble. Modified, well beyond that. Love to go to the salt flats for a couple runs some day. Low boost think 170-175 is doeable at that altitude.
105mph, 98 5.2 4x4 struggled to get there, only had it a year.
115mph, 99 V10 4x4, with ease, only there couple times to see.

I dont think i've ever had my Dodge over 75.
My Bike on the other hand will do 167 before the Gov kick in... pretty weird hearing the motor screaming and then all the sudden nothing.

I have had mine over 120 downhill and nothing cut off. It simply stops accelerating around 120ish.

Fastest in my truck was abut 90mph, fastest I ever gone was 150 in a Tiburon on I-10, once the initial fear wore off it was fun as hell.
