Many here think Im an old fart for driving the speed limit and taking it easy. My friends, my coworkers, even my wife. I dont care.
Many here also take positive notice of my ecomods and how I am getting the mpg I am getting. They think it is cool. I explained how they could save gas money, especially some the long distance drivers. But it just doesnt matter enough to them to try it for themselves. Their loss I guess. Its hard to change when the EPA gods say that a certain vehicle is supposed to get a certain mpg and those are the people who pay someone else to do every service for them. A bumper sticker Ive been thinking of is "Ecomodder.com - Your mpg is up to you".

I see it here all the time, people would rather build ginormous kamms, change their wheels, gut their interiors and block their grilles before slowing down, it simply makes no sense.

I dont know about that for sure. I know at least me, I joined here because I was interested in saving fuel. And I had been interested in saving fuel long before I found the site. So before joining here I already had done the things I knew I could do, and slowing down was #1 on the list. Might as well start with what can be done for free and without work. The mods were for seeking further improvement.
