"Wasting fuel doesn't make you manly"

That line is bringing up so much in my mind right now I think I should condense it, A lot.

In short, I don't think that "It doesn't make you manly" Is quite the right thing to put there. I'm not necessarily saying it's a wrong statement, But I know some half-hearted attempts are going to come up from the "I'm a Hippie/Grunge kid/Metal head/Etc but in reality am not really such and am only wearing a mask" crowd, If you know the particular crowd I'm speaking of. I imagine it'll happen regardless whether that quote is there or not so we do need an emphasis on safety and we can't slow down too much in city driving, Some people will road rage over the tiniest things. Modding a vehicle cheaply and safely is the way to go to start out, I imagine.
