Perfect sense...drive with your brain engaged. Plan ahead. Don't disrupt but be aware of what is coming ahead. All that said, you can't make everybody happy. Hey, we have a Prius as a second car...no one has tried to run me off the road. I don't hypermile in traffic but I don't drive aggressive either when I am paying attention. Not that I can't do both without regard, it just has to be a priority to try to plan ahead. I do it in my job, why not in the truck/car? Piss someone off in Texas, you might get shot! Be careful out there boys!

No question you have to be in the right area with the right amount of traffic to Hypermile, The only vehicles I have pissed off recently are the Moose in Algonquin Park:angel::angel:

Be careful Ken...you don't want to piss of a MOOSE, they could put a dent in your Tahoe!

Yes Mel your right last time through the park was at midnight, I noticed in the middle of the road fourway flashers and a man frantically waving his hands. I stopped, nothing was left of the front of a Ford dually pickup truck , the guy was okay, but he was pointing in the distance. To one large upset Moose. I said to the gentleman as the Moose ran off " I Guess He Does'nt like Fords". I then gave Jim a ride to the next town.:shade:

You guys have some pretty cool birds. I will make it up there one of these days and have enough warning to let you know I will be there. Thought we would meet when you were in Wichita but hard to make stuff fit sometime. Thanks for the invite! I would love to see your hangar and operation.
