...or whatever had the most toys for the budget when they chose their SAAB, BMW, Audi, Lexus, Mercedes salesman special saloon.

None of us here are driving gods, but I bet the average ecomodder takes more notice of what is happening around them than the average of the population...

Yeah, and when you were fighting to the front of the queue it mattered. Fighting the numbers instead - who cares who goes in front ? In my old guise that X-5 in front was an annoying roadblock, now its someone stupid enough to finance the fuel to move a house who is also punching a house shaped hole in the air that I can sit in - without tailgating obviously.

They win by being in front and I win spending less on fuel...
