Holy Cow I agree with Supe. I drive my Taheo every once in a while to work (50 miles on the interstate) and drive completely different than if I am in any of my other cars.
On a related note, as it is suppossed to be in the 60's today, I commuted to work on the BMW (52 MPG, enough said), and I had this idiot lady in a Navigator just putsing along in the left lane, towing a U-Haul trailer. Now for the Dangerous part, the trailer had zero brake lights! I kept my distance, but since I couldn't see around her, or see the lights on the Lincoln, I was having a hard time figuring out how she was driving (speeding up / slowing down almost instantly). After about 15 miles, I started getting really nervous that I would get squished from behind because she was going to lock up her brakes, and I could stop no problem, it was the folks behind me I was worried about. THe right lane was clogged with Semi's, so when I finally got a chance, I did something I very very rarely do, and passed her on the right with a quick flick of the wrist.
I was not suprised at all to see her =:
A) on the phone
B) tailgating the shiznit out of the car in front of her
Needless to say I broke the speed limit for a bit getting as far ahead of her as I could.
