Default Re: Whats your max comfortable driving speed

I see there is a lot of different speeds out there and I understand everyone has there comfort level.
The reason I ask is I was talking to some one about my Model T and Model A's with reguards to driving speed and when I told him I dove my Model T 40 to 45 MPH he said I was nuts driving that fast that he would not go over 45 with his Model A. I pretty much drive my A like Mr Logan does and feel very comfortable because it is in excellent restored condition and I need to get up on the interstate from time to time and have to run 65 to 70 with traffic so they don't run me over. I live on a 55 MPH county Hwy also and I feel my Model A handles as well as a 1959 ford we had when I was first driving and they traveled 60 MPH all day and didn't stop any better ether.
So seeing all your posts makes me feel a little better.

Thanks------Bill
