I want to move to Germany!!!!
I was watching the history channel about the German Autobahn and I am just itching to get to Germany. They have no speed limit so you can drive as fast as your car can take you. Even tho 'Americans' say speed kills on the History channel it said there are about .72 per 100 fatalities on the Autobahn compared to .84 in the US. Geez it's just another way for the 'man' to hold us down. Oh well, maybe I'll get stationed in Germany by the Air Force and I'll be able to push the G to the limits.

3 dollars a liter. You sure? I mean that's insane. In Korea it's about 1.50 for a liter I can't believe Germany's gas cost twice as much as korea.

I've been on the roads in Germany. It was nice. Everyone in the right lane was going about 80mph, and everyone in the left lane was either passing, or going well over 100mph.

The drivers over there have a different mentality about driving. I really don't think an unlimited road would do good here.

I'm sure you would have some idiot pull in the left lane going 70mph while everyone else is flying over 100mph. Accident waiting to happen in the US.

Man, I'd be happy if everyone in the left lane went 70! Around here I regularly see some jerk in an SUV going 10 under in the left lane.

If they are in the left lane, they better be going at least 10mph over or I'm flashing my lights and yelling at them to get the F!CK out of the fast lane.
Yes, I am an angry driver.

You need to drive GA400, it is the closest we have to the Autobahn I believe.

Not anymore, that "reasonable and prudent" thing got repealed shortly after it was enacted.
