To each his own. After several SF-LA trips I've settled on cruise control at 69mph. I find that the continual sorting-out of the pecking-order in the "speeding lane" is just WAY too much work and stress on that drive. Too many speed changes, too many lane changes, too many aggro tailgaters. Bleh. In the right lane at 69 most of those folks just leave me alone. They're too busy being the fastest. And it's slow enough to allow good cruising time in-between the truck clusters or other occasional non-speeders. 10mph isn't going to make that much difference in travel time and if it forces an extra fuel stop, really none at all. And if you get a citation, well your time savings just evaporated. Poof. You can't make I-5 any shorter, prettier or smell less of cow ****, with the throttle. It takes awhile; might as well relax. :lol:
