If you have suspension or abs codes it can limit your speed. Common issue with Cadillac so imagine it's the same for your truck. My caddy is speed limited to 112 and yes it'll hit it although it was fukin scary in that yacht.
Your gas mileage sucked too...

Only sometimes?

The code comes on and is cleared at the steering wheel at every start up.

Depends on the codes I suppose but if caddy has service suspension on it limits speed to 90. Possibly an intermittent fault that time it limited speed. Need to dig into the history codes, could be multiple codes limited speed.

My old I30 Infiniti is limited, too. At 124 it kicks out of overdrive and the light starts blinking. At 131 it goes into failsafe. Or so I have been told...

I'm not concerned that it is limited. My old truck was too. I learned to deal with that. My concern is that the limit dropped to 85 for an unknown reason, and then after a restart, went back to 98 or 99.

You know how when your computer screws up and you shut it down and restart it and everything works again? Same thing.
