I agree with this! I love my 318 and 2.76 gear, I can cruise several hours and not go broke. The engine stays cool too. Its common for me to drive 75-100 miles in a days cruising 
...and my car is fast....um...if the race starts at 80 MPH!

Hummm, The need for speed.
All my friends have fallen prey to the desire to go faster. So much so they can not afford to drive it more then 20 miles or so.
Now, my as far down the speed pole as you can get Satellite is getting 24mpg, Hummmm. Cruising is no problem.
It may not be quick, but I can run 80mph all day and hear the 36 year old radio.
And besides, it draws a lot of attention at car shows.
I must admit though I have an 04 Hemi pickup that I have tweaked out with a cam, exhaust and computer up grades. I love seeing the new mustangs in my mirror with their confused look.
