I agree with RH77 on the washer fluid (never done it deliberately). Unless it's raining, it can be *obvious* when it is being used to get someone to back off.

Ha ha, it's still a skunk metaphor, because your car is "spraying".

The "research vehicle" is probably the best. It's non-confrontational and implies you and your car are "working" at the moment, which might make your speed more legitimate in the eyes of the tailgater.

I used to have NRA and GCO stickers on my car, but got rid of them because that could make my car a target in a parking lot for a break-in. I like to know that I'm the only one that knows I'm packing. Until the time is right, no one else really needs to know, for the most part.
