I've been driving for 10 years now and I still find I cant maintain speed without looking at the speedo.

I'll try and keep 120km/h but when I look down like a minute later I'll be doing like 110 or some shit.

My other weird problem is, I cant maintain distances. If I'm following a pack of cars (buddies to a restaurant in an area I don't know) I'll start out at 2-3 car lengths then all of a sudden I've drifted back to like 10+ car lengths. Mainly on the highway though, doesn't happen in the city that much.

What kind of pussy-ass shit is that? Try "ever since I could sit on a lap and hold a steering wheel".

Been drivin' since 5th grade. Can tell EXACTLY what speed I'm at with out lookin'...in fact, I don't even look at all when I'm drivin'. That's how Jedi I am. I get in the car, close my eyes, and when I open them, I am there.

Your mother's husband's lap doesn't count, nor did his special 'gearshifting' training to prepare you for a manual.

eh im 24 and been driving like 8 years, none of my bikes/cars have had a revmeter but i can revmatch and guess my speed by engine noted/gear.
none of them have been smooth, all shitboxes. but yeah newer cars have nvh insuluation, so its pretty hard to tell by feel. go oldschool and get a shitbox from the 80's; strip the sound deadening out, as-much-to straight intake as possible, and straight through exhaust and you can learn it pretty easily.

Holy shit how new are you?

Depends which car I am driving. My company car is a BMW 535d and it is so refined and quiet it is so easy to end up way over the speed limit without thinking. Especially on the motorway or when overtaking

I can tell because my shitbox is a base 2008 PT Cruiser. It rattles and shakes at different frequencies at different speeds.
Rear wiper vibrates loudly at 35.
Liftgate interior plastics at 45.
Silent at 52-62.
Glovebox door rattles at 65.
Passenger seat shakes at 70.

It's ugly and shitty but I like it and I've put 195k on it, it's like an old friend. Not great on gas (16city 22hwy) but with the rear seats removed you can fit a ton of shit in the back. Moved my entire studio apartment in one trip in that car a few years ago.

Pretty easy to work on if you can get over Chrysler's half-asleep engineering.

Licensed for 6 years, I don't even need my speedo. Seriously. I know just by feel what speeds are in my truck, and it's helpful since the speedo is 5 slow anyways and at 38-51 mph the speedo bounces between 25-55 randomly because old cable.
