This is an idea stolen from the tdiclub forums, and it might be interesting to hear some people's stories of the outside world's encounters with ecomodders.
I've gotten some weird looks in my car so far. The best were before I painted my coroplast campaign signs that I made into my front air dam. I was at a stoplight and I noticed a woman looking puzzled toward me.
I didn't realize until later that she was trying to read the cut up and combined campaign signs across the front of my car.
While driving, I don't notice or pay attention to what other people are doing in their cars. My wife, however, enjoys watching others and telling me that they're staring at the car. Apparently I've had people laugh at the car on two separate occasions (that she's seen). I bet they thought I was a "tuner" and not an ecomodder. Once I get some big numbers advertising my MPGs like others on here have, I think the looks may change...
What stories do you have?
