There was one the other day that screwed me up, but not too many. There are a few places to and from work that I can idle for a good mile without really slowing down drastically for the conditions. Usually if they whip out in front of me I know theyre going to gun it and be out of my way before I even catch up. Theres only one thing that really irks me and thats being stuck driving 40. Too fast to maximize the gain of the TCC lockup at 35, but too slow to be able to grab OD and drop to 1500 rpm. Once I grab OD I can actually let off the gas a bit and still speed up, because of the torque of the 3.1. I do notice feeling more relaxed while hypermiling, while everyone else is just wasting more gas. I feel more alone, which is good. A lot like driving in a good snowstorm, when a lot of people are too afraid to be out, very peaceful.
