I just heard on the radio that driving over 60 mph is like paying .15 cents
for each mile per hour over this figure.If gas is $2,50/gallon(dont we
wish), driving 75 mph is like paying $4.75/gallon.I havent tried this
myself,but it think it might be a bit high.75mph is a place I only approach
by passing slower vehicles,and this only takes about 5 minutes.
