I'm all for coining some other term than Hypermilers, at least for the rest of us. How about something like Super-milers. Takes the edge off the extreme, gives it that superhero feel, and pulls us together rather than differentiates us. As for hypermilers tactics, yeah, it's hard not to confuse them for little old ladies lost on their way to church. They can contribute to added congestion, and even accidents in their somewhat egotistical efforts to prove a point as to what they can do for themselves. Perhaps someday, a systematized way for all of us to Supermile will present itself to our society at large.
