Oh No!!! I've become SMUG
I was driving to work today taking a toll road. I have one of those transponders that let me sail through without stopping. It's a 45 mph speed limit through the toll booth. About two miles later the toll road ends and there's a traffic light, so I lowered the cruise to 50 mph before hitting the toll booth and just kept it there. In the mean time several cars behind me had to stop to pay the full toll. Of course they caught up and passed me before the stop light, but then got stopped at the red light. With them sitting there, all in the left lane, it triggered the light so that it turned green right before I got there. I just gave them a smile as I went by them in the right lane without slowing down, all the while my mpg gauge is reading about 50 mpg.

Re: Oh No!!! I've become SMUG
My first smugness (I kept it to myself) came when I was with my co-worker during a lunch break and he had to fill his tank on his Ford F-150 and I figured in my head that I could go almost 1500 miles on the gas he just pumped into his truck which lasts him just over 300 miles.

Current tank: 647 miles, 67.3 mpg (Have I failed to mention the ways I love my car?)
