Please, Please, welcome me into the 500 Mile club!!!!

That's right! On the second leg of my drive out to Maxus I averaged a speed of 74 mph (actually it was a pretty constant 74 mph 90% of the ride). I filled up somewhere in PA and hit 500 miles 30 minutes into Illinois. When I stopped to fill up, the tripmeter read 504 but I'm sure I could have gone another 20 miles before the light would come on.

Sweet...good job man! lol

So you're in Illinois right now? Be careful when you get closer to the Marion area...I hit a HUGE speed trap there once.

I think I'm going to take 35 but I heard there's a lot of construction down there.

dang dude...did you go through wichita to oklahoma? 35 almost ALWAYS has construction...but you'll most likely run into a lot of speeders that you can follow on the way to dallas. It's friday though...hurry b4 traffic picks up.
