My drive to and from work is 45 highway miles round trip, and I drive about 65-70 the entire way (traffic is steady, but flows). I never crack 3krpm until the engine reaches 180 degrees. That's not to say I don't give her a good workout on almost every highway entrance ramp, etc, etc.

I am a pretty spirited driver, but probably nothing compared to most of the people on this board. As a result, though, I'll spend a lot less on tires, clutches, gas, and insurance than a lot of you :-)
