  • USO: Is a Probable Capitulation in the Works? [View article]

    Driving 65 doesn't mean anything. My car (BMW 325i) gets better
    mileage at 80mpg than it does at 55. It's all a matter of gearing.
    Those drive slower mantras are from the days of 3 speed transmissions
    and terrible engineering. Cars are now geared (especially German
    ones) to run the highways.
