Donald... Not really being sarcastic. I really don't exceed the posted on the interstate. My daily little curved stretch of I-40W is indeed posted 60mph. I did mean to say "putt" as most vehicles pass me and I'm content to stay in the far right lane and never have a problem making my 27 minute trip on time.
When most drivers see a twenty-four year old navy blue Mercedes diesel they assume they must overtake me so I let them. Once in a while when someone is trying to merge and some idiot decides to pass and cut us both off I'll show that there's plenty of headroom. Most of the time though I'm content to just move with the flow in the right lane. My private joke in the summer as carloads of "tourists" pass (seven days per, six months May-Oct.) is that I "have the keys to the park in my pocket and they ain't getting in until I get there anyway." > From: Donald Snook <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Reply-To: Mercedes Discussion List <mercedes@okiebenz.com> > Date: Wed, 30 Jan 2008 21:24:49 -0600 > To: Mercedes Discussion List <mercedes@okiebenz.com> > Subject: Re: [MBZ] OT Taking a Poll on Tailgating - Not a Rant > > Timothy R. wrote: "When I zoom along at 60 mph on I-40, right lane, sunroof > open, . . ." > > Are you being sarcastic when you say zoom along at 60 mph?
