Thanks, this is what I was hoping for. I think I'd be pretty happy with 55 most of the time, but occasionally I'd want to push it a bit and would be good to have something that can do a bit more when needed.
From drive 'slow' trucks (Fuso FG and Mercedes 1017), if you can maintain or be slightly faster than the semi-truck (class 8) traffic, both on the flats and the hills, life is good. On freeways, you just fall into the 'Elefantenmarsch' (German term for a long line of trucks). And 55 mph is fine (and most of the time the speed limit) on secondary roads. You are driving your' home' for enjoyment and should be enjoying the scenery not trying to pass every car on the road. If you are slowing traffic on narrow roads, just pull out for them to pass when possible and you will get a ton of thumbs up for being considerate. Most smart people
(ya getting rarer every day) know you are peddling as fast as you can.
