So, I've been driving a Prius a lot lately. I get over 61 miles per gallon on it by just driving the speed limit. I'm not an asshole about driving the speed limit either. I stay in the number four or number three lane, I don't clog up the merge lanes I will speed up if it's jam-packed and nobody can pass me as far over to the right as I am.
What I find hilarious is, even just today, I had cars that stayed behind me even with open lanes to their left. So I'm toodling along at 65 mph and some Chevy sedan will be behind me nearly tailgating me for miles on end. In this particular case the freeway expanded to a couple more lanes and I pulled over one laying to the right. Then this car who's been doing 65 right on my tail for the last four or five miles suddenly hits 90 mph passing me.
Are they fucking drunk? What is wrong with them that they couldn't just change lanes and pass me on a clear bright day? I am damn proud of my 60+MPG driving habits. Not even a quarter of a tank gone and I've gone something like 230 miles. Fluid dynamics!
