Thumbs up The guys over at eco-modder are crazy

OK, I'm stretching the intent of this "Success Stories" sub-forum a bit with this, but check out this comment posted at AutoblogGreen about Coyote X's plug-in hybrid Metro project:

The guys over at eco-modder are crazy. They do a ton of good work and are on top of nearly everything related to squeezing more mileage out of a gallon of fuel. I suggest you check out the site.
That was posted by an ABG reader "PabloKoh".

Not sure if PabloKoh is a member here under some other name, but when I read that I thought, "if that's how people who are interested in automotive efficiency view EcoModder, I deem it to be a complete and total success!"

EM rocks. And by EM, I mean: the community of ecomodders participating here.
