I've lost the will to speed

I don't know what's going on--I just don't care about driving fast anymore. I'm still scratching my head over why I didn't buy a Saab. I had a number of rational reasons but ultimately I just didn't care about having a fast car. Last week I spent about 4 hours driving around the greater Detroit area in the bosses MB S550 (about 400 horse) and I felt nothing--I couldn't have cared less. Maybe it was two years of driving a Subaru, maybe it was living in the wilderness and not being able to drive fast for fear of elk, rock slides, and shear drop offs with no guardrail. Maybe it's the fact I no longer commute--all my life I was "in the game" and I needed a "gun" to defend myself in the fray, now I don't. My boss and his wife actually told me to ramp it up with the driving--I was too pokey.I don't know what's going on?
