We have them all over the place around here. I would think most of rural America is the same way. But another reason is that Michigan does not currently have vehicle inspections, so people can pretty much do whatever they want. Practically every other guy around here is/was into steel fabrication.

Before I was trying to really save fuel, I would only go 70 (70 mph limit) on the freeway anyway, in good weather. Besides setting myself up for a ticket, I could watch the gas gauge move much faster at 75 mph so I almost never did that.
