With the larger tires I have on my box, the speedo is right on at freeway speeds per GPS, milemarker timing, radar, and the electronic speedo in the Scanguage II on the dash.)
Then again, I don't get passed all that much... On a slow day I'm about 10% over the limit, and on little trips (such as to Montana) I have cruised well over eighty for hours...
I guess I'm lucky - last ticket was in 1978, I think...

hahaha 1978 i wasn't even a "thought"
but yeah xB get much less "grilling" from the cops...
i get away with 80 on New York highways...where cops are ALL over.
i do get much more "action" from the little ricers as oppose to when i used to drive the tC..for some reason they think my car is slow...hahahah...little do they know ;)

I do 70 pretty much all the time on the highway. Except when I am going into the city, on 280 and 80, Im doing 80~90 most of the way. and in the city, I drive like I was born there.
I never get problem from the cops except one BS ticket, but I think it was out of state profiling. But even when I had my fully blacked out tails I never had a problem with eh cops. I think the local cops know me and the box by now, Im friendly with them.
Im just under an hour from the city.

(It's been years, but when I lived there I was just under an hour out of the City, in NJ down by Sandy Hook - Atlantic Highlands, NJ. Used to spend most weekends in the City - for some reason it fascinated me.)

there arent too many ny/nj meets. a lot of the central guys meet somewhat often. But I have only been to a handful of meets in my 4.5 years in the scion community.
