Day 147 and I can Drive 55

Does anyone remember back in the late 70's-early 80's when they reduced the national speed limit down to 55 to save on gas cost? Does anyone see that in our future again? I've been reading how it will increase your gas mileage, Tom read it could improve it by as much as 3-4 mpg. That could really add up. So I've decided to conduct an experiment and I've asked Tom to play along. I'm going to try going 55 on the highway through my next tank of gas and see how much difference I can tell. I know the van usually gets around 20 mpg.

Tonight we are having an FPU update to see how everyone is doing. I'm excited!
