I was at a store on Saturday morning, there was a woman sitting in a car, cellphone plugged into cigarette lighter, car running, just sitting there wasting gas because it was OH SO IMPORTANT to be on the phone, her husband was walking towards the vehicle waving his arms telling her to shut the car off.....she just ignorned him.

I guess gas isn't all that overpriced then.

Pull into a drive-in and you'll see the same thing. My favorite drivers are the ones that will run the AC while they eat...with the windows down. Turn the damn car off!

Idle your car 30 minutes and you will waste 1 gallon of fuel.

People here in the South do it all of the time.

My neighbor will drive his huge truck up in our driveway leave it running and come sit on the porch and visit for half and hour or longer.
