Unhappy but ... but ... but ...

.
I DON'T WISH TO SEE WITCHING (switch out b for w) ABOUT GAS PRICES !!!!
I SAY THEY SHOULD BE HIGHER !

If you drive the speed limit you will lower gas consumption 25% ... or more.

I travel the 76/476 ... 2x a week, 105 miles plus each way.
When the speed went to 65 I found to stay alive I needed to drive 75mph.
Over time my gas mileage began to decline. I thought it was engine trouble.

After having my car serviced and tires replaced ... no change.
The next week during inclement weather speeds hovered around 65mph.
I used about 40/50% less gas.
I have been testing that speed to find it is an average of 30% less gas over driving 75mph.

Also ... HANG UP THE STINKIN' PHONE AND PAY ATTENTION.

Thank you for putting up with my rant.

Three cheers for public transportation.
