My car's speedometer only goes to 140 MPH. WTF? The car can go much faster than that. The last time I got it up to speed I stopped at 138 MPH seeing as how it would be a waste since I wouldn't actually know how fast I was going. Is this the auto industry's way of passively keeping me from going to "ludicrous speed"?* Why stop there? It could go to 500 MPH. Though then I suppose someone (possibly me) would complain that the speedometer goes to 500 MPH and yet the car does not. There's no pleasing some people.
*My fellow geeks in the audience will get that one.
