I see that at work with alarming regularity. People eat lunch in their vehicles and run the engine for AC in the Summer; heat in the Winter. I'd bet that
none of them keep a fuel log; and that
most of them complain about the price of fuel.
I eat lunch at my desk, and then go for a 1.25 mile walk around 4 of our buildings to finish my lunch hour, so I see a lot of vehicles in the parking lots.
I was shocked one day when I saw a lady eating lunch in her Honda Accord V-6 coupe with the driver's side window open and the engine OFF. I briefly considered asking her, "What? You're not wasting gas to run the air conditioning like everyone else does?"
