You know you're an ecomodder when you're disappointed with 4.8 L/100 km / 49 MPG (US) on a 266 km round trip going snowboarding (2 people + gear) in a full-on snow storm. Worst mileage in recent memory.

...all while conducting an experiment!

The new magnetic wheel cover passed its trial by ice, pot holes and and freeway speeds.
