Is the speed limiter on our Dakotas in any way harmful to the engine? I
would hope not but hey, anything's possible, thought I'd ask. I managed
to get up to 105MPH today, then backed off because I didn't want to
incur the wrath of the speed limiter and I was starting to run out of
road. But, now I know where I can go to try more speed runs.

I was pretty impressed with how stable the truck was at that speed
though - not a shake or shimmy to be found, except the side mirrors.
Both the cars my parents own got unstable above 75 or so, scaring the
crap outta me.
