I had my cruise control set at 95 on my way from Chicago to San Diego. I-80 is a very boring road between Chicago and Denver.

Re: top speed

75mph 4 speed manual and I can imagine the rpms were pretty up there since it doesn't have a tach in it. Oh yea this was with a messed up speedo that reads about 10-15 above what the actual is so I may have actually have been going 65.
