Relax, slow down, and enjoy the scenery.

Not my style although I do enjoy scenery. I like to be out there
pushing the edge which means 80 to 90 mph these days. The defacto
speed limit on FL interstates used to be about 80 but that seems to
have edged up to to 85+ in recent years.

Don't get me going on Q-tips. :-)

Ahhh. I see your problem with RVs. Too bad so sad.

I see some RVs and commercial busses which can run a steady 80+ so it
is doable. I'm also fine with the trucks running 70 to 75. My big
issue with trucks is in hill country where they are racing each other
uphill at 40 to 50 mph. That should be illegal.

Sounds a lot like I-81 in Virginia. But, I have to admit the truckers are usually
pretty courteous. They've got their job to do. Since I use cruise control, they pass
me on the downhill side, and I pass them back on the uphill side. Eventually we're
waving at each other.
