Anyway after reading 5 pages about how people must be envious, stupid, or have some sort of psychological issue to have a problem with people that are trying to improve their mileage. I posted here to point out that it is far more likely they are just sick of getting stuck behind someone slow all the time.
To whom are you referring? I don't recall anyone doing this or claiming they save fuel doing this...are you trying to use a strawman argument?
