62. LOL j/k I probably have it in the 30's. The only time I really go louder is when I'm testing stuff.

In the morning it's 10-15. Any other time of day it's between 20-35. And only at 35 if the windows are all down on the highway.

30-35 usually. When I plug in my Mp3 player, I need to to turn the volume up to around 40-45 to get the same loudness as when I'm listening to CD's.

I usually run between 15 and 30. The only time its lower is if I'm talking to someone in the car.

15 if it is just for background noise.
20 if it is a song I kind of like
25 for the iPod
30 for good classical (Sirius 86 is awesome)

City 15-25
Highway 30-35

Maybe age is a factor here?

Same with this guy.

On one of my partying nights, I turned it up around 50+ and I think one of my rear speakers blew. I can hear it rattle on certain bass notes.

What a bunch of old farts! j/k
I don't think mine has ever been less than 50, it's mostly maxed out since the stock stereo is so weak. There's only 1 way to listen to Lamb of God - LOUD!
