The consumption in my Toyota goes all to hell at 85. It still gets
around 29-30 mpg but it definitely isn't economy mode.

My Golf auto was fine up to about 50,

My Golf gets worse every year. I just can't twist and bend the way I used to.

Practise your bendyness on a young maiden.


Is that what your boyfriend says?

Idiots like the two of you should be banned from LIFE! And I MEAN it!

And you will scream and scream and scream until you are sick.

I will keep exposing the idiocy of all you senile cretins until you stop
feeding the perverted Scottish sow, senile cretin!

you *******s aren't green at all.

Around here they just run over the cyclists. If the F350 doesn't get
them
the horse trailer will..

I'm becoming a pussy in my old age and really like dedicated bike paths.
Sharing narrow, shoulderless roads with traffic isn't my thing anymore.

the problem is when I'm cycling I hate motorists and bikers......when I'm
on
a bike I hate cyclists and motorists......when I'm in my car I hate

the best way to travel around locally ....

I just hate anyone who either travels slower than me, or doesn't ****ing
indicate or obey the rules of priority at junctions.

I hate neds in fart cans .........all leased bmw and audi drivers
.......and donors on plastic fantastics ........

I hate anyone who uses headlights during broad daylight. They get my full beam back.

Yes.

making them less efficient,

Nope, more efficient.

using a lower gear,

Nope.

The most efficient speed for a car is to travel in top gear at low
revs
without causing the engine to splutter,

Hardly anyone drives like that.

When I'm in a bunch of traffic going 40mph, I'm in 5th gear driving
economically.

Hardly anyone drives like that.

I drive around town in 3rd and only use 4th in the higher speed limit
areas
if in one for a while. Only use 5th gear when in the 100Km or 110Km
areas.

You must have really congested towns.

Nope.

Then why can't you get up to 5th?

I can sit happily in 5th at 30 or 40mph.

Bull****, and hardly anyone is stupid enough to do that in 5th anyway.

Why waste fuel in a lower gear? If the engine will run comfortably in top gear, then do so.

But cyclists don't go that fast.

Most arent actually stupid enough to stay
in 5th except when there are cyclists.

Why would someone be more likely to stay in 5th with cyclists? Is English not your first language?

overtaking, changing speed, etc.

They do that anyway even without the cyclists.

Wrong, they pick the speed they like and stick to it.

Nope, they drive at the speed the speed limit allows.

Most ignore the limit

But only go a bit above that.

Usually 10-15mph over.

BULL****.

Then you must have more vicious law enforcement than the UK. Most folk here ignore the limits except when there's a police camera. And you get warned of those by folk coming the other way flashing lights at you.

and drive at an economical speed.

Even sillier than you usually manage, and that's saying something.

Certainly a steady one

Even sillier than you usually manage, and that's saying something.

and certainly in top gear.

Even sillier than you usually manage, and that's saying something.

At least try to engage in the conversation.

I did.

You pasted the same crap 3 times at the end.

I used to flash volvos to tell them their lights were on during the day and

It's quite simple, lights are to illuminate things when it's dark. If it's light lights must all be off. Anyone who doesn't understand this simple concept is an utter moron. You don't go out for a walk at midday with a ****ing torch/flashlight do you?
