Yes we are taking the A6, there was no way I was going to let her win. Remember the wife wanted to drive her 12 mpg expedeiton.

I just got the car back from service. Time to wash, wax, and put on the bra before we head out.

I do hope I find some sucker ut on the highway who wants to run about 95 mph with me stuck 100 yards on his rear bumper.

Careful. Southern troopers love to ticket Yanks (assuming you're a Yank).

Default If you are using a radar detector, don't forget it is illegal in some states.

Have a great time

Default Fly low

Stay with or slightly above the flow of traffic, don't lead a pack of cars, try and stay to the right. If you're going to be doing a lot of passing back and forth between lanes, think about minimizing your signaling. Watch speed limit signs for sudden or unusual changes (i.e., speed trap).

Default Sounds like you will be fresh for the ride - be sure to use the bra without the underwire

particularly for long trips, I understand those are more comfortable.
