Who really uses PWR all the time?

PWR ECT 100% - S Mode 80%
At first I thought I'd never use the paddles, now I set it in S-4th for the drive to the freeway and then click up to 6th for the commute after getting up to speed.
If I'm feeling lazy I will leave it in D mode for City driving. If I'm alone I'm usually in S Mode.
It's not like I have to use the paddles all that often, only when I want to go from 4-6, but keeping down in 4 gives me extra oomph when I'm doing short city drives.
Yes I am not optimal on the MPG, but oh well, it puts a smile on my face

Since I only get to drive it once a week, I use power 100% of the time, just in case I need it
. My wife NEVER uses it, she swears when she gets the car back I've used half a tank or something. Who knows.

When I first got the car, I would run it in PWR mode only when I needed it, then Normal most of the time.
Now, I run the car all in PWR mode, no affect on gas milage for my style of driving.
I can't stand the decrease in throttle response when driving in Normal mode. Normal causes me to drive with a heavier foot, so I just leave PWR on.
