Do you drive the speed limit?  Five over?  It's been suggested to me that 67 mph is the best speed to travel for gas mileage savings and for the longivity of your vehicle.  I'm not sure if that's specific to the make of the truck or not.  That got me to thinking about what speed everyone else drives as they haul.    

I used to run about 75 but after I got in a trailer wreck due to a blown driver side tire I drive the speed limit. 

Depends if i'm on time or late.....

I drive what the sign on the side of the road says I should, I know I'm such a rebel lol. 

depend on traffic road conditions but i use to drive rthe speed limit plus but again where you are traffic weather road conditions

Typically drive the speed limit if I'm pulling a trailer.  If weather/road conditions are bad or there's a lot of traffic I will drive slower.  Nobody seems to understand that trucks pulling trailers can't stop on a dime.

Slow..... I know for a fact my horses know when I'm driving vs when my hubby drives lol! They can relax a little when im behind the wheel 

Depends on the road and conditions. If I'm on I-95 south of Richmond and there is no traffic I will cruise about 75 or so. In traffic I'm a snail. In bad weather I am a snail. On 29 S through the mountains I will run a hill or two but other than that pretty much 50-55. I used to drive faster but I've learned there is less stress if you just take your time.

I am driving miss Daisy... .... During day-time and good conditions I will drive 65-70 depending on speed limit. When there is lots of traffic, rain or at night I will slow down to about 60-65 or slower if need be. 

It still amazes me that other people do not know how long it takes to slow a rig dow, especially when it's loaded down with horses.Just absolutely love it when I leave a gap slowing down for a traffic light and one of those darn 4-wheelers whips in right in front of me....

I drive very defensive, will slow down as soon as I think I see an issue coming up. And I know I am peeing in someones wheaties most every time I haul, but I will do everything I can to keep our horses safe. Had a blowout on the front drivers side tire a couple of years back and I was very lucky there was no oncoming traffic because in a split second I swerved into that lane... Luckily I was able to manouver the whole thing back onto the right side of the road before a semi came up to us, but it sure made me pucker up big time!!! We were only doing 65 and looking at the tracks we left I know it would have taken me at least half a mile to get back in the right lane without flipping the whole thing.... 

Plus our old truck does the best when it's running around that speed, anything over that the gas mileage will become hidious! 

I keep up with right lane traffic unless I’m behind someone who can’t do the speed limit.

IMO if the speed limit is 65mph, you are a danger to others going under 60mph.

I also do not want to be the vehicle that everyone is blowing up on and getting over at the last moment - if the greater traffic pattern is traveling 5 over, I’m keeping up.

Utah's interstate speed is listed at 80 MPH.  But most everybody goes 84.9 MPH.

I run the speed limit or what the flow of traffic is doing.  The most danger is the driver that is running slower than the rest of the traffic.

Read an article in a working cow horse/cutting magazine years ago. They had an article on hauling and this question was one of them. They were asking a couple NCHA contestants that hauled all year chasing points. All of them said they drove between 60-65 mph and slowed down on curves and at turns turned very slowly until the trailer tracked straight behind the truck. They all felt this contributed greatly to the longevity of their horses, all were over 15 years with minimal maintenance and still working great. So I drive like a granny. I figure those people would know what they were talking about. Also, since doing that, my horses seem less stressed when hauling. 

I drive 65 to 70, mostly because my truck has 4:10 gears and it redlines if I go much faster. But our speed limit is 80 on the interstate and 70 on 2 lane. Personally I don't think I'd be comfortable pulling a trailer going 80. Now driving my car is another story. 

I drive 4 over and maintain the same speed as much as possible. I make smooth transitions with turns or my speed to help with gas mileage but also the horse's balance. We are extremely flat here so the biggest worries are red lights or stop signs and other drivers. I think everyone should take a little ride in the back so they can see what a normal car stop feels like for a horse.

I told my husband that he needed to go for a ride in the trailer and I'd drive like he does so he can understand lol! Now that we have the slant and horses are more secure it's a little better for them. But I remember when we used the stock trailer, the horses learned how to balance themselves real quick around corners and coming to a stop. I hopped in the drivers seat as much as possible. He drives an 18 wheeler for a living but hes hauling batteries not horses lol!! I think he forgets.  Even when not hauling and hes driving, I use my passenger side brakes ALOT! 

I drive at least 5 under the speed limit, and dont get to close to the car/truck in front of me, I want room between me and the others just in cast I need to slow down in a hurry and that happens alot here.

LOL, I had to laugh at Driving Miss Daisy, I'm the same way I know people get ****ed when I'm in front of them on a two lane road, I'm always watching the road like a Hawk when I'm coming up to side roads, if I see a car racing up to the intersection and most of the time it looks like they are going to run the light or stop sign I already got my foot ready for that break when I going to the Vets in Selma I hit the back roads coming off the main highway, people are always in such a hurry around here.

THIS!!

Depends on the wind ... and the weather ....  and the terrian .... and the traffice flow. You certainly don't want to be purposefully going way slower than everyone else, because that can put you at risk (from the driver's that aren't paying attention and come up on you real fast).

If I got a good tail wind going down the interstate, sometimes it's really easy to cruise along at 80 mph without even trying. And sometimes if there a 40 mph side wind I'm fighting, well, then 65 mph might be fast enough!
