4 car lengths is still too close. At 65mph, you should be three to four of HIS lengths behind him, or about 200 feet, at the closest. Do the math so that you are no closer than 2 seconds behind him. I would love to find a truck going 50-55 mph so I could get two or three of his lengths behind him (2 seconds). If he drives any faster, I'm better off doing P&G.
