Hi everybody. Newbie hypermiler.

Hello everyone,

I like the site very much and am going to start recording my mileage on here!

I drive a '92 Volvo 940 GL. It's an old tank of a car but I love it. Trouble is, my parents both drive Priuses and they get way better mileage without even trying. So I'm going to try to get up there with this baby.

Not so good at hypermiling....YET!!

The Volvo has no mods but I'm interested in any ideas. I posted in the mods section and also on some other forums. A full EV conversion would be my dream...when I'm rich and famous (ha!).

Sam

Welcome to the site. There are a few Volvo owners already here that may have some info posted.
