Default 95 mph...seriously??

So I had the opportunity to open up my 2011 5.0 FX2 I bought a couple of months ago. Shut down at 95 mph. Couldn't believe it. What a joke.

Check your manual and see if you got the speed limiter set through the sync controls

95 is plenty fast unless you are at the drag strip or a closed course.
