Interesting comments. I was curious as I drove out to an old Mining Camp yesterday and hit about 88mph, at which point I did not feel good about pushing my VX faster. Nothing could be worse than breaking down in the middle of Nevada with my wife and dog...not that I felt like the VX couldn't handle it, but I did feel the limits would be pushed a tad if I went any faster.

Also interesting about the MPG at these high speeds. I basically burned half a tank in 2 hours....and at $3.89 a gallon it made an otherwise free little trip cost me about $50.
