Quote from: gnubler on July 11, 2011, 08:13:50 AMThe 35mph is just the "maximum" allowable speed - you can drive at whatever speed you want, even down to 25mph. I tend to drive around 31mph in 35mph zones.
I thought you're supposed add 10 miles to the speed posted.  :huh: <===== filled with  :sarcasm:
My wife just goes 75 everywhere, no matter the posted limit

Awesome. In the 40mph zones I prefer driving around 58, but on the highway I drive around 25mph because I'm always afraid of my wheels flying off.

When I was a kid on family vacations I always wanted to speed through Nevada as fast as possible. When my Aunt was driving, she always said she didn't want to drive faster than 80 because if she blew a tire, she felt like she could still gain control of the car at that speed.  :wtf:

Gas mileage goes to shit over 70 just trying to overcome wind resistance.

Yep, I read a book that was about the fastest cross country trip and it wasn't about all out speed, it was about how fast to go before the speed cost more of a penalty than the gas stops.
Speed doesn't kill, rapidly becoming stationary is the problem

I'd rather have stories told than be telling stories of what I could have done.

Driving across Nevada is even more desolate than driving across New Mexico. Over 100 miles between towns along Hwy 55.

If anyone else has done that drive I am sorry to announce some fuckface chopped down the Shoe Tree last year, just "for fun".

Haven't made this run in a while, but if I recall, it takes about 4 hours to go from Reno to McDermitt (on the Idaho/Nevada border). That road has two towns in between. Lovelock and Winnemucca.

Diff route. Hwy 55 runs thru the middle. I stayed overnight in Austin, it was a cool little town but nothing was open except one diner where I got a lot of stares.

Dreadlocks. Not the latest fashion craze in a town of 300 in the middle of Nevada.  :laugh:

I-70 through Kansas is one long boring-ass drive as well.

They were real. Then I realized I'm not black so I de-dreaded each and every one and lost about 1/3 of my hair in the process.

You can but no one would get it because I don't look like a typical African Amerkin.  :afro:
