Whew! Do NOT put a tail on your car unless you like talking to people. Almost every time I stop somewhere, someone asks about my car. I'm trying to get my answers concise and interesting, and keep their attention long enough to pique their interest. Most are interested in the mileage, as in," You REALLY gettin' 63 mpg in that because of ...that...thing?" Always answering "Yes", one young lady replied, "That's better than my Mom's Prius.". I'm getting to meet some really cool people.
