Top Speed???

I have touched 120 here on the autobahn with just a edge. It felt like it had more but my tires are only rated to 112 so I let off.

That's probably smart. Our trucks are not the most perfectly designed aerodynamic masses, and I expect the control of them gets pretty squirrelly at those speeds.

On paper my truck is capable of 197 mph

Longshot's chicken scratch handwriting on the back of an old Walmart receipt and a calculator

5600(max rpm) x 92.11(tire circumference in inches) x 60(minutes in an hour)
12(inches in a foot) x 5280(feet in a mile) x 3.55(diff. gear ratio) x .7 (O/D ratio)

=197

But I'll keep the secret of how to get there to myself

Well crap! Since my Gear Ratio is higher, you're going to leave me in the dust! I guess it's what I get for buying a POS truck, eh? (Please have the martinis ready when I finally get there.)

i had my 07 fx2 up to about 115 or so. could of went higher but my tires needed to be balanced and the truck was vibrating real bad so i decided to slow down.
