Yeah, on an open 2 lane road in the sw us 115 is a good cruise, but I wouldn't want to pay the ticket.

I geared down my 6spd auto 3% by installing smaller 225/40r18 tires to get to 115 quicker, so now I can only hit 120 instead of 125 before the limiter kicks.

Wouldn't it have been easier to just select a lower gear.....?
