I'm going to reply to my own post.I like 55 mph. What is the hurry?
I usually drive 55 but am not afraid to step it up. On my recent Hwy 101 trip where the speed limit is 55 I steeped it up to 85 for about five miles. It was like it wasn't even there. But the place I choose to do it had new pavement and was very smooth even though it was rolling hills. It was early morning and I had the road all to myself. The sides were cut low and I could see any animals. It was a safe time and place.
One thing that allowed me to do this was I removed a lot of the tongue weight. It was slightly over 200 and I reduced it to about 165. I did this by moving as much stuff to the back and actually put 35 pounds of lead behind the axle under the storage in the galley.
