It's one of my hobbies. I cycle to work , thus use zero gas, but I don't brag about that (not on this forum anyway). I just think it's amazing that a few simple mods and a different driving attitude one can double the EPA mileage rating. If everyone did this America would consume half the oil, and it could be spent on something useful, like paying down the national debt. A lot of effort goes into style, marketing, image and keeping up with the Joneses. My sc1 has only 132,000 miles. So jessimac, what do you spend your time on?
