How do you drive your Lexus?
How do you drive? I drive fast wherever I go. I don't drive recklessly but I never go the speed limit. How about you?

Due to the excessive amount of cops in my area, I only drive slightly above the speed limit around town, but, on the interstate, I am usually about 10 to 15 mph over. I typically open her up when provoked though.

Same here, medium to light traffic affords the best opportunities since there are blockers but you still have room to move thru them. Plus my Passport RD doesn't hurt.
I find that if the road is pretty empty that I actually drive slower because no matter how good a radar detector is, if you are the only one on the road it is pretty hard to argue out of it.

I'm not a slow driver, but with gas prices at around $6 a gallon I won't drive it like I stole it.

ouch, i thought it was bad when i was in alaska at $3.19!!!
depends on my mood. i hae to remember to baby my car, while she likes to move, sometimes funny noises follow fast movement.
if i want to drive like an ass, i get in the concorde.
so the lex stays at half-3/4 throttle and 5 over in city, and wherever i want on the freeway, usually 85-95.

5-10 mph over the limit until someone cuts me off. After that, all hell breaks loose.
