    And it's their fault! No need to be that close, and pay attention! (Preaching to the choir again...)

    Once the Mirage gets up to speed, it cruises nicely but loud. I'm constantly doing 75 mph thru Atlanta no problems.

    I just assume anyone that rides my slow ass instead of passing me when they have the chance just wants to hypermile with me and get some drafting in!

    You know you're a Mirage owner when you feel victorious passing a Spark on the highway!

    Little old lady.

    (And it was totally worth the 2 MPG hit for the trip.)

    You know you're a Mirage owner when you stop going the extra mile to look for cheap gas stations. It just doesn't matter very much when you only pump 7 or 8 gallons!

    When you find yourself glad about the small gas tank, so that you can see the mpg results of your efforts more frequently.

    When you consider ways, mods, driving styles, etc. that may help push you to that glorious milestone of 50 mpg (versus 20 mpg in your pickup, or 30 mpg in your various sedan).

    ... when you see a lifted pickup pulling a big travel trailer coming toward you and you think "Fummins definitely took a wrong turn somewhere..."
