I wish I'd posted this earlier.
We're doing a fuel economy challenge, that is, Jud, Hadi, and I in my car. It's on I-275, 18 miles round trip. Hadi's driving and he's down to 40 in the far right lane with some extreme DWL. He throws on the four-ways just as a precaution.
Not good enough. An enormous Lincoln Navigator gets right on our butt. Something about my "My car runs on minimum wage" sticker must have cause aggression to be directed onto us. He proceeded to tailgate, hit his flashers, and blast on the horn. Follows us down the 471 offramp, still doing 40-something, four-ways on. I guess aggressive drivers are people too, they're just really angry because they have tiny... well, leave it at that or I'd be banned. :)
When we merge onto 471 in the right lane, the Navigator cuts over to the left, V8 engine roaring, giving us all the finger.
Thing is Hadi says he never catches that kind of flak in his Lexus. Something about having three big guys in a tiny car (we probably looked like clowns), with a "Minimum Wage" sticker and "Go Around" plate frame means more and more aggression from drivers of gas sucking V8's directed at the little guy.
