LOL, 90% of what we do ecomodding is "impractical". But does it get you further on a gallon of gas?

It's like a friend of mine who is a avid cyclist. The other day he bought two new bolts for his water bottle cage. They are made out of titainium or something and save him a couple of ounces! They cost 10 bucks or something and they save him a couple of OUNCES of weight. Impractical, yep, but he bought them. That and a zillion other things and he can go faster and further than before.
