What's Your Average Speed?

What's your average speed?

My boyfriend was driving my MINI the other day and clicking through the display options on the tachometer and commented that my average speed was rather high (thanks to my all highway, no-traffic, 35mile commute to work).

So I was wondering what everyone else's is... So post your average speed!

Mine is 44 MPH.

(Ps. Is this average speed for the life of the car? Does it reset sometime?)

My average speed is between 32 and 35, about 1/2 city 1/2 hwy. I think you can reset it by just holding the button down on the stalk.

60! After a full day at the track, probably back down to the low 40s now after the drive home, typically it is mid to low 30s.
