Does this sound right?

The only way a Ford F-350 Diesel in stock form can exceed 159 km/h is a failure in the ABS system, The ABS system is were the speed sensor is located. So in order to be doing 201 km/h is for the ABS to fail, witch in turn would light the abs light in the dash and also make the speedometer would read 0

I imagine the key words would be IN STOCK FORM. My truck went to 105 mph on I-85 between Atlanta and Columbus while I was passing a line of big rigs. I didn't notice how fast I was going until I glanced down at the speedo and said "Holy $hit!" I prayed that the county mountie that usually hung out around there was off duty. They would have put me under the jail.

Yes thoes are the key works, Mine has only had a dealer reflash

A stock truck is limited to about 98mph.
It will take a tuner to disable the speed limiter to go any faster.
Once disabled,the speedo will go back to 0 and the odometer will show --------- once you go past 100 mph

more systems the just the abs control how fast the truck is limited to, and everything is electronic on them, so no if you disable the ABS the truck in stock form will not go over its speed limiter

u got any more ingo on this? i need stuff that can stand up in court. Thanks

 

[tbirdfiend281]

im guessing you got clocked doind 201 kmph? i dont know of any way to prove a truck wont go that fast, but i would maybe go to your local ford dealer, explain to them your situation (if they are cool enough) and possible talk to a ford rep, other then that i cant imagine a way to prove it, maybe try and find an expert or find some way to certifiable document that a truck cant possibly go the speed you got clocked doing

Ford says they know there is a limiter but dont know what speed. Do u have a number for a dealer in the states i could try? Thise once in canada are next to usless. I have found lots of info saying in is limited but nothing for court.

Take the judge out for a ride.....

The speed limiter is based on the tire speed rating I'll bet...
and it is in the 97 mph range....
now who knows if going downhill will allow u to go faster ?!?!?!
