I hear that P&G is one of the BEST ways to improve MPG's. I've read up on it, I still don't understand exactly how to accelerate. I have read and I feel that this is the "correct" way to do it...

Drive up to 50mph, coast down to 30mph (takes 15 seconds), drive back up to 50mph in a manner that takes 15 seconds. Is this right? Or do I want to coast down to 30mph and then accel @ WOT to 50mph.*** Someone tell me please.

***All mph and times are made up.
