    Which would be safer?

    Split speed limits are just plain dangerous. I am in a governed truck it is set at 65 although I can go 66 sometimes. If I am trying to pass a truck that is going slightly slower then me, it might take me a couple miles to get past them, longer if there is a slight incline and by that time the...

    how good of gas mileage on a 7.3 litre cube van

    I think the big issue with a a cube van is that nice wall you have behind you. That is why the Unicell is so nice. Do something to make it more aerodynamic and you'd probably gain 1 to 2 mpg
