Just drive 60 mph. Makes the math easier.

Are we picking on blondes today? hahahaha

It depends upon your definition of what a 'mile' is. Nautical miles or statute miles?

Sometimes time can seem like it is longer depending on who you're with in a car. My 2nd ex-wife for example...80 miles at 160 miles per hour would seem like an eternity...

As long as the cruise control is true, I’d go out on a limb and say an hour....

Let's put that into question form for our two contestants...

If you're driving 60 mph how many miles does it take to go 80 miles?

If ObamasCare saves you $2500 on health insurance premiums per year then how much less are you paying on your healthcare insurance?

If you drive South eighty miles, then drive West eighty miles, then drive North eighty miles and arrive back where you started, where are you?

The north pole, and driving a hell of a rig.

There is an old joke from many decades ago: Which is heavier, a pound of steel or a pound of feathers?

But of course being black, they had to figure in getting pulled over by the Po Po for speeding.

The sad part is that, these days, you don't know if the problem is because they dropped out of school or because they graduated from today's public schools.

LOL! Depending on how much coffee I have before the trip, there could be a couple of pit stops making an 80mph trip to go 80 miles take an hour and a half. Then, if Momma spots an antique store we’d have to add another hour.

I like to drive 80 because it makes the math easier. Just divide the miles-to-go by 4 and multiply by 3 to get the minutes-to-go. :)

"How long to go 80 miles at 80MPH?"

That depends. If you are driving with a menopausal woman, it takes about 7 hours (or at least it seems like it).
