    What's your comfort cruising speed?

    I know it is terrain, weather, traffic and other infuriating restrictions.....but when you finally find that open highway and you are ready to cruise, what speed is your preferred speed?

    When I get away from town and it is open road I find me liking the 77-82 MPH range. I have gone faster and slower, but it seems that speed range is where I always seem to find myself setting the speed control.

    How about you?

    On boring straight stretches, around 10 over works for me .

    10 over on almost every interstate is what all seem to drive. 80 seems the best for me.

    I like 80 too. Luckily we have 75 mph open interstates in AZ.
