    i always get passed by priuses going about 85-90 on the freeway.

    reminds me of the top gear with the prius vs the E92 M3 -- prius going balls-out around the track and the M3 just cruising behind it -- Prius got somewhere around 17-18mpg, while the M3 got ~19.4. i lol'ed.

    I hope you have an aftermarket pipe!


    extra points if it's a "D & D" pipe! (The noisiest cans made!)

    How'd it handle? 114 seems like it'd be a little hairy.

    Good point in the vid......"It's not what you drive, it's how you drive". For S&G's, I drove my '05 V8 4-Runner at 55 (Vs my normal 65-75) on a 300 mile trip last week. 80% of the trip was HWY miles and for the balance, I poped it in N when approaching stoplights and coasting down hills and nixed my normal fast starts at green lights. That trip netted me 19.8MPG Vs my normal 14.1. The difference for that short trip was $23 in gas @ $3.75 a gallon. I may do six trips like that one in the next two months and use the savings to buy Lamour a decent digital camera:D
