100 mph tractor trailers? The way DOT is nowadays they’d lose their licenses and their careers in short order.

I remember back in the '80's when a guy I knew claimed that he had an AMC Gremlin good for 200 MPH...

I am glad I swallowed the water I was drinking before I got to this one.

Everyone knows that all semi-tractor truck rigs ALWAYS travel at the posted speed limit

Get busted in a lie ... move the goal post....

The thing that you forget is that your posts are still visible. You never talked about 'speeding'. You claimed you personally clocked them at 100mph. That is what you are being called out on ... just to refresh your memory.

Maybe he's actually watching World's Wildest Police Chases and is too delusional to distinguish TV from everyday life. It must be lonely to have such an empty life that he has to jump on an Internet forum and lie so blatantly obviously that even a cursory glance turns him up as a fruitcake. Poor HM. I only wonder how many other forums dedicated to various trades or interests are littered with his paranoid postings.
