When you have a tool box but you keep common sizes and tools next to your drivers seat... 13, 15, 18mm, screwdrivers, and channel locks lol

Same here. But sometimes I have to work 65 miles away. so its 45 minutes at 75mph white-knuckled on both hands chanting (yes chanting) swear words at every rough bridge. Glad I don't take passengers, their screaming might drown out the road/tire noise.
Same, its my only vehicle. No sways, but the shaking is bad. I also don't need a speedo because some shaking goes away at 70 and the driveline vibes start at 80.

How high does your speedo go? The ones we have here go up to 210K/h (130m/h). My brother topped his stock XJ out at 170K/h (105m/h). Said it had plenty left in the gearing just not enough power. Ive had mine up to 150k/h (95m/h) passing a Porche lol.
