So has anyone tried "hypermiling" yet? I figure with all the time we spend on the road in our profession, it might be of interest here. I can't afford the downpayment on a Prius just now, and unfortunately my better half is too worried to agree to entertain the thought of a motorcycle for work. I drive a manual transmission PT Cruiser, and with gas prices the way they're going, the topic of hypermiling was quite interesting. So far I'm getting 31mpg in the city now, just by doing a bunch of coasting and slower thoughtful driving. Given that I'm due for an oil change, a tuneup, tire rotation and who knows what else, I was impressed. The perk on top of that is a big reduction in stress, not to mention the increased safety. I guess I didn't realize how much stress I put on myself by rushing around driving fast! Does anyone want to discuss? -Holly Quigley Ticking off Drivers in the Fast and Furious City of Atlanta -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
