What do you set your speed warning to?
& why? I have mine set to 85 and bump into it pretty regularly. If I didn't have the V1, I'd probably have it set lower. Why?..., not quite sure, just seems like the right number for me. How 'bout you?...

I don't.

85 - 90 is my cruising speed. I easily top 100 when passing.

Yes, I'm a lead foot.

We don't need no stinking speed warning.
