I'm liking what I see... the questions that arises for me is, does any one have information on the cost of maintainance with respect to average speed? My "opinion" is that the savings from slowing down are greater due to lower maintainence cost than from fuel savings!
The next Question is what is the average cost of speeding tickets/driver? this needs to be added to the cost of speeding in some way.
With respect to the effort cost I for one would rate modding as enjoyement on the order of getting a longed for gift of some kind...an other way I look at it is if I sit around doing nothing ...in order to not wast my time... doing something then all I will get is fat! If I "wast my time" doing something I will be amused and gain satifaction in the achivements.
