Budget may well determine the level of comfort/quite of the aforementioned goal of "(maybe cruises at 70) and brakes well". Now the fact is my project budgets are made on a high quality balloon, that way it can expand as the budget inflates. I find a Budget is usually only a suggestion of project cost and it's only value is helping to decide if one is serious in tackling a project.

Good Luck, RonR
