"How fast is that with the stock auto trans and stock tires?"

"A bit over 70 on the flat with the hamsters taking it easy."

There's no place in my neck of the woods where 70 is legal. That said,
highway 20 heading east outta here has plenty of spots where a fellow
could drive fast without endangering anyone. Mellow Yellow is getting
new shoes on Thursday (BFG 195/75R14 A/Ts) and I reckon I could take 'er
up to 70 and see if any bits of rubber fly off. Of course, the
speedometer in the '84 van runs so high that it will display something
95 mph. I'll use the gps.
