We have some of the flattest straightest roads in the nation here,
But your lack of power might get ya killed when getting onto the hiways.
About 1/3 have a moderate incline and short merge lanes so plan your 0-60 at 2+ degrees in 1/2 mile.
Then factor in the I own the road people and the I never yields or the rollin 40 over postedees and you are a mangled lump 33 feet past end of merge lane.
