Hm... someone should have stolen that car.

Honestly, it didn't matter around here when gas prices were higher, most of the kids in this town still drove like idiots, as though they had something under the hood of their Neons and Probes, Jettas and Civics.

For those people anything that reduces intake restriction @ WOT would give them better mileage, since it seems like they're almost constantly at WOT.

I spoke with a few truckers that were calling in for the night the other day on my way home, when I stopped for coffee, before having to get involved in an accident, and they all agreed that driving at 55-60 MPH on the highway normally caused them to not have to "burn up the binders" because of those "stupid 4-wheelers" and their "ridiculous driving", not to mention the "greenies in rigs".
