Well, I just drove the car from my ex-fiancee'* parents place to the mechanics shop 30 miles away -going 75 mpg at 5500 rpm (only have 1st and 2nd gear but no slippage) the whole time. She never flinched. I wouldn't have driven that fast, but Melissa was in a hurry to get back to St. Cloud (35 miles on the other side of Sauk Centre *AND* she'* not too fond of my ex-fiancee'* family <--- that'* what she talks like every time she talks about them LOL).
