Is it impossible for a vehicle to drive at a giant speed each day?

I commute to work each sunshine via a highway on which the speed limit is 65 mph but most travel at a speed of at tiniest 75-80 mph. Is traveling at this high speed for a time of about 33 miles one mode bad for my vehicle (which is a gas guzzler since it is an SUV). Also, does a vehicle burn more gas travelling at a difficult speed? Explain why. Thank you in finance!

I haven't be to LaGuardia Airport within...


It guzzlers 15% more so drive the speed limit. tickets are $150 or more 2 tankfuls LOL So go 15 minutes earlyer. Less stress

Hi, is anyone going to Modesto from...


yes, it burns more gas at a sophisticated speed, the closer your engine gets to decline speed, the more efficient it become, and since your top gear is meant to be close to rot at 55, when you go faster than this, the engine is running at greater rpm's..

it shouldn't hurt the vehicle though...

Why our commutes and traffic is more...



Answers:    It won't do signifigant damage to the coup¨¦. The engine will be reving at higher RPM's (rotations per minute) so in that will be more potential wear on the engine, plus the tempeture will increase slightly... all things that will shorten the duration of the car slightly.
And yes, a sports car does burn signifigantly more gas at higher speeds. The superior the speed the faster the engine is going. It takes more gas to keep hold of the engine going at those faster speeds. The main pretext the speed limit is set at 65 is not for saftey (cars now are still very not dangerous at higher speeds) it is because of the amount of fuel used up to run faster. Engines are not very rationalized at these higher speeds.
