Actually I'm lucky in that respect for two reasons. One Phoenix has pretty long on-ramps and I usually dont commute during rush hour, and usually going against the traffic flow. That being said I find that by flooring it in all four gears I can usually get up to freeway speed by the time I have to merge. But you do need to plan it in advance and make sure you keep the pedal to the metal for most of the on-ramp.
