This morning early I had a nice open stretch of the 405 and was testing the wheel balancing job I had had done last week; there used to be a shimmy between 65-70, right where traffic likes to coast here in SoCal. Shimmy is gone fortunately, and then I decided to give it a go and see how she would do at higher speed. Took it to 85 mph on the clock (max on the speedo); I know that's close to actual speed as my tires are taller than spec. There was still more the engine had to give but I decided that was good enough for me. Bit more wind noise of course, and likely my MPG went south big time, but the truck felt quite solid. Automatic with overdrive, I think it was running at around 4,200 rpm.
What's the fastest you've ever had your Bronco II go?
