i agree, for the most part i set my cruise for all its worth (72 mph).
In virginia (i81) thats about all anyone will run for fear of getting a ticket from the VSP.

Running i10 from texas to florida the posted limit is 75 in many places and up north on i40 between amarillo & abq the posted limit is 80.
