Lots of variables. Without a doubt you can drive faster. RV DP behemoths routinely pass me when on the interstate at what seems at least 75-80 mph. How do they stop those things? Air brakes? One flew by me towing a Cadillac and a boat! How do they do that! Is it legal?
Uhoh, I'm rambling. Sorry. It's the early morning coffee.

I have been passed by the newer 42' plus DP's with tag axles and it always amazes me how fast some of them are traveling. I know some have been going between 80 and 90mph. Since we are shopping and doing some research on [B]used DP's I have come to the conclusion that the main reason some of them drive like that is because of the way those coaches handle. But of course that doesn't mean they can stop them any better.
