it still felt good. Me,my brother,and sister-in-law were going to the cycle shop in the Hemi a couple weeks ago. On I-64 there is a 7% grade about 5 miles long. Anyway, I was cruising along about 72 and 5 or 6 cars and pickups passed us like we were sitting still. Within the first 2 miles up the hill, they had all fell on their face and we criused right on by still on 72mph with the bike in the back and and plenty more power on tap,the Hemi wasn't even breathing hard.

Should've seen the look on some of their faces.

same thing happen to us while traveling through Missouri hill country.. a newer chevy tahoe kept passing me on the downhill sections only to get passed again as soon as we hit the next uphill. We both had our cruise controls set at around 74ish and the hemi never backed down, not even 1mph. After about 5 or 6 times of doing this, i started to notice him talking to his buddy and pointing at my truck, at one point i could even read his lips say the word 'hemi'

, and verified this by his buddy shacking his head up and down and grinning at him... after a few more of these hills, the driver and i started to make humorous head nods at each pass. He even went as far as to use hand gestures like he was rowing a boat

even my wife noticed that the tahoe wasn't able to "cruise up the hill very well".

That's probably the only Chevy driver I know of with a good sense of humor, most of 'em would be jerks
