^ I've been following your thread, you're allowed to miss mine since you have a good excuse, you've been busy! I can't wait to see the tail when it's done. And thanks a lot.

Can I join the MPG Militia? I was just thinking that I need to add some stickers or numbers that say MPG or something along those lines. Might help cut down on the funny looks and questions I'm always asked.

Yesterday at school I was just coming out to my car and 2 guys in a workvan were backing up and stopped by my car. When they saw it was mine, the driver said "wow, that sure is creative...". I told them the gains in Mpg I've had and they seemed really impressed. When I told them how much I drive/commute, they seemed to actually appreciate the effort into it and finished with saying "I guess necessity really is the mother of invention! Too bad this one (his van) only gets 18 l/100 km...". It was pretty cool actually, they went from wanting to laugh at it, to seeming to be genuinely interested and impressed.
