Right at this moment, since I just made another commute to work, I'm realizing that it only REALLY needs to go 45mph... I DWL the Golf all the way to work and seldom exceed 45mph, even though the PSL is 55 for a good section of the trip.

Interstate highway 86 is only 1000 feet at the further from my route, so everyone takes that. Funny, it takes me longer to get home on the interstate at 55 than it does on the rough road going avg 40 or so. I say rough road loosely, because must of that section of 86 is like a dirt road in terms of being smooth... Ask Wonderboy.
