Floyd says Greendog buses will get you pretty much anywhere. Which of the following sentences use this construction correctly?

There may be more than one correct answer!

That's pretty much all I can tell you about my friend Arthur.

This sentence is correct. "Pretty much all I can tell you" in this case is used to mean "I can't think of any additional information worth mentioning".

Saying "I love you" is pretty much the same as saying "I adore you".

This is a good statement. The expression "pretty much" is often used to mean "approximately". For example, "pretty much the same" means "not identical, but in most ways the same".

You shouldn't drink pretty much if you're going to be driving.

"Pretty much" can mean "a significant amount", but that is not what is intended here. The sentence should use the expression "too much" to mean "more than is safe or healthy". (If you are going to be driving, most people would agree that you shouldn't drink alcohol at all.)

Your new shoes look pretty much with your dress.

Incorrect. The word "pretty" by itself means "nice to look at"; the word "much" should not appear in this context.
