Before I put up my MPG stickers I would get flipped off. Now I get a lot of thumbs up and smiles. Mostly I'm ignored as they pass me talking away on their cell phone. Twice I was passed on the right. The person passing decided to use the break down lane even though they had 5 lanes to the left to legally use. Go figure!

One guy gave me two thumbs up (no hands on the wheel) and then indicated his pickup only gets 11 MPG with a silly smile on his face.

I usually try to ignore them unless they go out of their way to get my attention (good or bad). It is evident that my bragging rights take the sting away from their middle finger. :-)
