They try to release their frustration through insults.

Same idea as when you see some kid in school with a girl that you like.

Human nature is to try and insult ( or even fight ) the threat.
This.

Why would you bash anyone who is just trying to save money in times like these? I paid $3.66 per gallon today (i know its low compared to US average) and these guys' logic is that its dumb to want to save money on gas. What I think is great about this community is the diversity. You have people that drive hybrids, EV's, regular sedans, even trucks and RV's. You have people that want to save money, people that want to save the environment, and then there is people that just like the thrill of seeing how high of MPG they can get. If they are a hater, its their loss.
