Texas has the highest speed limit in the United States at 85 MPH on Texas State Highway 130 ... and if you're only going to go 85, please stay in the right lane so the rest of us can pass.

Interesting. It’s also a Toll Road so hopefully the Tijuana tow bar setups won’t be on it.

Are there cucumber farms along Rt. 130?

If you have ever driven I35 from San Antonio to Austin you will gladly pay the toll.

80mph from Kerrville, TX to El Paso on IH10, almost 500 miles.

Dude, I went up there in 2018 to get a hard to find Z71 - the Vettes, Cummins Rams, and chartreuse Kia Souls were kungfu fighting’ - them cats were fast as lightning ️

I wonder how much tolerance the Texas Highway Patrol allows over the 85 mph speed limit.

Traffic flows pretty steady at 87-88 mph on the 80 mph posted sections here in Utah.

I'd have to detune my Maverick to hit the sweet spot

Unfortunately they are overwhelmed with newer problems started on purpose - in recent years …

Throw in the Infrastructure Package (needed road work) & it's real comedy (Good luck going 85).

I can’t tell the difference - construction never ended in any direction around Houston…

That's been our experience. I am seeing new roads here and there in those big cities being built.

It was part of the deal.... they got to set the speed limit if they built it.

And it seems slow when you're on it.
