Thanks for the forum topic. After reading all the input, I have decided not to draft, based on cost benefit considerations.

Thumbs down on truck drafting: my hunch is it does cost the trucker in gas, as has been suggested. Also, it's downright dangerous, and an irritant: tantamount to tailgating.

This seems more of a general topic, in no way specific to the 2006 and on Civic Hybrid crowd. Move it?

I was responding to an existing older topic, that came up in a search of your website with a prompt of drafting. If you want to eliminate the topic fine, your call. I found it interesting and useful.

Not my call, I'm not a moderator. And I don't want it elminated, just think think it is more for general discussion, in no way HCHII specific.

Then you should probably contact the moderator, and have the whole topic deleted or moved. I didn't put the topic here, and I don't share your concern.
