Default whats your top speed

what's the top speed that the durango can safely handle ...I taken mine up to 85 ..felt that it still handled pretty good ..I use to own a 97 ford explorer never drove it faster then 65.. got tired of being pushed around on the highway so I went with the hemi

i've only been up to 95, driving on a road with a 45mph speed limit. I usually have to take my foot off the gas because i end up behind 3 slow cars moving at around 50ish, and no one willing to move out of the lane hah.

The wife tops out at 80mph -- I can tell by the shriek.
I'm OK at 100 but here on the east coast there are few roads around me that are long enough, straight enough, and trooper-free enough to do that. My insurance company would not like it.
