OKAY. i havent post for awhile due to so much homework and economy issues, but when i drive it seems like im driving so slow.. and like people are like behind my ass so much. and im already going over 10mph the speed limit. like say if the speed limit is 35 i would go 45 and they would still be on my ass. i hate it x_x. it makes me feel like im new to driving or something. is there something wrong with my drivetrain?
im thinking about going through that one light post where it tells you your mph :rofl: maybe it'll solve my problem if im going the right mph or if my gauge is messed up. or people just like speeding im not sure.

Screw them, take it easy when you drive. Just make sure you're on the slow lane though so that you dont piss off anyone. Try to pass by those speed radars, thats how I found out that my speedometer is off by about 2-3 mph.

Yeah, exactly.
They made 318's for the people who like to drive slow, but give people the impression of a fast car. :D

Ya dude just drive how you always drive. F*** them. Just make sure your speedometer is accurate though.. You got the right idea, just drive by one of those Speed Radar things and see what it tells you.

A great little new fangled gadget they've come out with these days that would be awesome for this..... GPS. The stupid cop speed things lie, and you can't always tell which car it is scanning. Plus, why would you trust something that law enforcement puts up when we all know that the speed they write on our tickets is usually wrong anyway? That means they make stuff up and so do their radar guns. Don't forget that they don't always get their radar evilnesses recalibrated, but its not usually a good idea to ask them that when you're pulled over as they tend to react pretty angrily.

Bull feathers. I didn't buy my 318 to drive slow. And I don't.

+1 but at least they are Germianized. Cavaliers piss me off, 318's have yet to.

Slight problem with this. How are you still alive? Rhetorical question, don't give us the details, just pointing out that you should've gone the way of the Chevy.
Damn. I was going to say "dead" but that was harsh, even for me.

It was a small cliff. Back in the day my boys and I would buy sh!t cars for like $100 and crash them.

If you wanna check you instant speed get on the interstate, set the cruise, go to the OBC, select speed, then hit set/reset. When it first resets and comes up that is your speed at the moment. It should be off a bit, but, not like 10 mph off.

^ That doesn't always work. What if their's is off too? What if they aren't pacing perfectly? GPS FTW.
