I love the mpg I get, but I love my tailgater defense mechanism...drop it to a lower gear and revv the ish out of it...smoke screen. Especially devilish when their windows are open, convertible is down, or their vents are open. I've also been known to continuously use my windshield washer fluid when ppl tailgateh: I'm an asshole
:rofl: I do the washer fluid too. My favorite is to speed up, and right when they accelerate I coast down so they have to hit their brakes. People who tailgate me when I'm doing 10+ over the speed limit and have nowhere to go can kiss my ass

If I have room to move over I will be nice, but when there's no possible way for them to go faster in my spot than I am I just fuck with them

If I just drive back and forth to work, I usually average 25-28. If it's just highway it's 30 easy, best so far was 36. Best for highway average is about 31-33.

I enjoy it sometimes too, I had some lady who kept stopping inches off my bumper in light to light traffic, so I accelerated as slow as possible without allowing her any room to pass me. She was flipping out....I was laughing heartily
