You don't mean to tell me that "PSI" is not a speed limit number?

I can't believe I read that column that way not once, not twice, but three times.

Breakfast is served!

I don't like to be more than about 10 MPH less than traffic, unless I'm on a steep hill with a truck lane.

Hey, that reminds me. How well do those ScanGages work? I'd love to know what my transmission temp is without having to install a gauge in one of the lines.

Towing a trailer gives you some latitude in driving a bit slower. Without the trailer in tow people are less forgiving.
