Love bug "escape velocity"

What is the maximum speed that I can travel and have love bugs bounce off my truck without depositing their guts on it? Just need a cruise control setting, thanks.

100 mph to ensure proper bug deflection and maximum fuel efficiency.

101 mph is more fuel efficient, retard

I've found that 40-45 works sometimes, 55 will splatter. Whenever a big bug would hit back in the day without hesitation dad would bust out the "took a lot of guts to do that" line, good times.

Where are you? I ran through a plague between Natchitoches and Alexandria Friday. My blue-gray SUV was almost black by the time I got to Baton Rouge.

Just get there faster and you'll watch the mpg shrink.

I-49 painted me black today and Friday. They seem earlier than usual.

Depends on the profile of the vehicle. sports cars are better than pick up trucks. My current vehicle obliterates the little buggers at 42.5 mph. naturally I keep it at 42.
42 is the answer.
