First time I drove my sisters suburban I might have been 17, it was a mid 90s model, I hit 95, I didn't realize how big it was til I hit the brakes and it took forever to slow down...

Haven't maxed out the yukon yet, ran it up to 95 once, nothing special.

Actual 127 on NJ turnpike, and it was still pulling hard. Had my gps on. I only slowed down because I didn't want a ticket and I have a cdl class a. I know she has at least 140 in her.

If you see me running, I would try to keep up.

top speed is 137 so if you have bigger tires or wheels on it than what it was originally built with then that would explain why the speedo will say 140, mine was built with 18" wheels and I have 20" on it so the speedo is off 2-3 mph also.
The tire set up on my hoe is the same. I hit 140 pretty quick and the only reason I let off the throttle is that the frontend started to lift and slightly bounce. It has more pedel left. When I get some more weight out on the bumper I will retry to see if I can put that pedel to the floor.

80~125 is pretty quick, beyond that it goes up slower and takes another 1/2 mile+ to get up into the upper echelons, I have never felt any lift nor bounce at all in my nnbs nor my nbs

How are you going to add more weight to the front bumper.
