In a perfect world and if dodge wasnt full of **** yes it would.

Same as the oil change indicator they fed us a bunch of BS on the tire scenario also.

You wanna go higher than 105 your going to haft to wait for a programmer if they take the time to make one since our parts keep getting further and further from production everytime bankrupptcy news pops up.

Edit: and BTW I'm beta testing the hypertech tuner right now and it doesn't do anything for the speed or rev limiters.
Hypertech has now figured out how to remove the speed limiter. They said that they are working on the rev limiter.

The nice thing is it hits 105 in a hurry, and still seems like it has alot of power left.

105mph...I would hate to have to swerve in my truck... A car fine but a truck?

How does it feel to do 105 in this truck? Does it sit on the road well?

Had to crank up the beast today to get around some dumpers and slow pokes hit 105 and it paused for a second, kept pushing the gas and she kept on going, got her up to 115 then let her back off, as far as maneuvering you will be pretty surprised it handles really good and drives very well at high speeds and feels very comfortable and stable no shaking.

115? Wow, are you sure? Not saying it didn't happen because I've never tried, but I thought the speed limiter would not allow speeds past 105mph.

I'm going to try, I'll post a pic of the max speed on the GPS if I get there. May be next week though.

This has to be one of the dumbest post in awhile. We all own the truck. The truck stops at 105mph and hits it hard. You are not going to get the truck up to 115mph by pushing the gas pedal. Put your reading glasses on next time you look at the speedometer.
