I just have the haircut . . my son is a KC-130J pilot on his way to Afg from Okinawa shortly. Dad was WWII Navy and Grandad was WWI Army (and on back a few centuries). My cousins and I missed 'Nam draft by a couple of years.
As to spouses: the overall argument is like a household programmable thermostat. I'm trying to not only save on our annual electricity bill, but want the equipment to last longer.
Years longer. Tires and brakes that go 70k miles, not 40k. Etc. Compromises for safety which are only marginally good for FE are not acceptable (overinflated tires, for example). FE is just part of a larger context of overall ECONOMY to reduce household transportation expenses. This is the approach that works best, IMO.
