Best mod ever...

Not really a mod, but a very simple thing to do and this do change the reaction of people on the road :

It says "consumption 67mpg - 1056mi/tank - and you ?".

Before that the reactions were mainly by young males driving tuned cars and thinking that the only reason to have a car is to go fast. Which is more than funny when their rear doors have sunshades with childish cartoon characters

Now I have several everyday noticeably from ladies and old people

But with or without this paper, the best overall is the smiles ans astonished eyes from children seeing the car

Have fun,

Denis.
