Treckie, she DID have a point about tire pressure. People don't actually take into account the coefficient of friction when working out miles per hour. It actually takes you slightly longer (It's small but its measurable) to travel 80 miles if you're traveling 80MPH if you take into account the energy lost due to tire friction. Her guess of 58 minutes was actually pretty accurate, even though she was using completely retarded logic.

Thats not valid however.
If you are going in 80miles per hour, you are going 80 miles per hour, and it will take you one hour to go 80 miles, nothing related to how much airpressure you have. The question is hypothetical, not practical. He never said by car, so he could have have the example in the air, or even space.
But, if he were to say the speedometer shows 80 miles per hour, how fast are you "really" travelling at, then yes, tire pressure is relevant, as well as the thickness of the rubber on your tires, not to mention if its a different sized wheel compared to "original speccs".
Not to mention she prooves she doesnt understand shit when she starts involving the weight of the "truck" having anything to do with it.

Tire pressure and those things aren't even relevant if you're looking at the speedometer. The only thing relevant there is how accurate the speedometer is, and that's more of a settings issue than actual pysics of the car.

[Treckie]

The speedometer is configured to original or atleast standardized tires with sufficient air pressure.
The speedometer is only counting how fast the tires are revolving, doesnt have anything to do with how fast you are actually moving or how big the tires are, bigger tires mean higher speed on the road with low speedometer number.

Unless... you are looking at GPS speedometer!
