When I was in high school my father was going through his mid-life crisis.
He bought a '87 Porsche 944 Turbo. I used to slap the governor on that
thing consistently (like once a week).
It was governed at 156!

I've clocked Freedom van Gogh at 100mph (content) and had to back down
outta fear! Bricks don't handle very well at those speeds. And there
was still plenty of pedal left. Yowzers!!
As I've said before, speed isn't what the bus lifestyle is all about.
;) I voted for the calendar shots that represent what I think a bus is
all about. Most are scenics.
I've started doing bodywork on the dings and scratches on Freedom.
Cindy is embarrassed but I think bodywork patches are fine on a bus,
even if it is a vanagon, eh?
