What I've noticed the most was other drivers tend not to cut in front of me nearly as much as when I'm driving my honda civic. I can only assume they take a look and decide they better not.

I get the opposite reaction.....at the On ramps , no one wants to let me in. But a little gas helps that.....I also get the same reaction in the fast lane with people tailgating...etc....
