you will get that kind of reaction from people in the country, and conservative areas a lot more than you will in cities or liberal areas... at least that's my experience. People in Seattle, WA and Portland and Eugene, OR don't even seem to see my car....people in Spokane, WA and Northern Idaho however would comment all the time.

I think if people understood that I got 45mpg I'd get more reactions.
