I let the car start the conversation. I usually tell them my car's base MPG and say that the increase is 50% driving style and 50% ecomods. If the conversation goes longer, I describe the most tangible/concrete mods, aka the one-size-up-from-stock tires and the taller 5th gear.
I've even made a card to send them to Ecomodder, but I never have it on me when the time is right.
