I sure love the way Americans drive. The combination of excellent roads & cheap gas seems to make for courteous, quick and fast drivers.

On 5000+ miles I averaged over 71.3 MPH according to the Garmin. I had the thing switched on whenever the engine was running, so that includes city stop & go plus interstate time. Very impressive number.

In California, the freeway traffic densities are so high - I don't know how it's even possible to get a speeding ticket. I cruised at 90+ from Del Rey to Palm Desert and didn't even notice that I'd forgotten to switch on the V1.

The RCMP would've had me for lunch in my home town.

Ah, driving in the US - almost as enjoyable as Europe.
