Police package doesn't do anything for speed

75mph on the motorway with cruise control on. I've seen 100 but it didn't sound like the Jeep was enjoying it too much! 235s make the speedo pretty accurate, if anything it under-reads compared with sat nav.

I hit 88 all the time, but I keep ending up in the future or in the wild west. I really need to stop that I really don't want to run into myself and Biff is pissing me off.

Last night at about 11:30 I was flying down my street, the 95 Sport was bumping up against 180 MPH the we hit a bump and flew over a cliff.

Damn good thing I woke up when I did, we were just about to hit the bottom of the canyon!

You can go as fast as you want ..... in your dreams!

In your Cherokee ..... not so much!
