Obviously, I'm not wondering about the gas in your tank--I'm wondering about all those other drivers who seem to want to make a statement by flying around you at wide open throttle because you are going too slow. I would say that it happens to me 3-5 times each leg of the commute. Ironically, I almost always see the offending vehicle (usually an SUV) at the next light so it's nice to know their little show got them there SO much faster.

You would think that more people would slow down with gas prices as high as they are, but I guess it's just easier to complain then actually DO something to reduce consumption.

Commuter car, grocery getter, and summer road tripper--average 10k miles per year.


Winter road trips and ski trips, bad weather commuter and my wife's "daily" driver--expected average 4k miles per year.
