...you get annoyed when a pickup truck pulls out in front of you and you realize he may have just ruined your glide....and then OUTRAGED when he stomps it from 0 to 50...

...
...and your glide isn't affected at all.

YKYAEMI.... the President of the local Miata club repeatedly tells you "if you're so concerned about fuel economy, you might be in the wrong club."

As it turns out, he was right, so I quit the Miata club. Boy, I sure miss that restaurant we met in though.

How about when my wife looked at the mileage readout on my insight, and accused me of somehow cheating to get that kind of mileage. { 77.7 mpg with 394 miles driven } She is driving a new Yaris and is happy when she can average 40 mpg during a tank fill.

I was worried there STM, pissed in US speak means annoyed, in the UK it means drunk. Not a good mix for cars.

YKYAEMI... You listen to up tempo music to make up for your down tempo driving style.

YKYAEMI you see this at work on a 91-94 Geo Metro and know that it's true (for those who can't read it it says "Laugh all you want but this tin can gets 50 miles per gallon")

When you see a "Hybrid" Cadillac Escalade and you laugh because no matter how that person drives you will still get better MPG then them.

Concorde used to get better MPG than an Escalade. Some people (e.g. people who buy these naff trucks) STILL don't get it. Why ?

It's because the bigger the SUV you have the cooler you are.
