95 e300d
Drive 260 miles per week. 89 traffic lights each day. Northern Virginia to WDC. Drive on the hov lanes where I get up to 65 mph until I get to the 14th street bridge where I hit the brakes. A lot of times, it takes me longer to get from the Pentagon to Capitol Hill than it does to drive from my house to the Pentagon (about 25 miles) At 65 mph, she is steady, straight, smooth and gives me a little gyrating humm to let me know things are moving around fine. At hardly any mph, she just moves forward ever so slowly. I have it timed so I don't hit the accellerator or the brakes very much sitting in traffic. Also gives me a chance to read the paper. People flip me the brights and the bird all the time, and my wife thinks I'm a psycho, but when I'm driving, I'm the boss. So glad I have a diesel.
