Custom mileage signature choices

Quote:
The signature is just programmed to show that (hypermiler) after 20% above EPA, though we could change it to allow a choice of base terms if we wanted...hm.
I'll second that!

How about:
Hypermodder
Extrememodder (although I kind of hate the whole "extreme" thing)
Ultramodder
Eco Ninja
Super Sipper
etc.

A poll as a way to vote would be fun.

When I made the suggestion I was more thinking about whether people want to self-identify as ecodrivers, ecomodders, or hypermilers, but we could also factor in levels to the equation. Since I didn't program the signature, I'll see what darin thinks about adding the choice/level functionality.

It's really a frill so no big deal. I'm happy with how it reads now and it would add some more work for you guys. Anyhow, we can already add our own custom title under our handles.

I could deal with "Eco-Ninja" or something similar.

I'd like to think that people might open their eyes at some point... instead, I find it more and more likely that I'll just close mine.
