One of the reasons for this is that ME posts "left lane for passing only" all over the place. It's a law in most states, but it's not aggressively posted (or enforced). In ME it is enforced, so they don't have to deal with the "left lane bandits". There is nothing more discouraging then to pull up to a long "train" because the lead car is going below the posted speed limit.
My other car is a vw bus, so I'm a firm believer in the "slower traffic keep right" campaign
