Shade me old mate, I feel you are several heavens short of Nirvana here, although I too share your place on earth.

Only yesterday did I burn an additional 0.15 litres of Diesel if only to prove to the moron in a Lexus in front of me that yes, someone can move faster than they can so maybe the inside lane is meant for them.

I did, however, coast for about 2 miles after that (from around 120 mind, not true ociffer if you are reading this) out of gear at 380 MPG on the SG and --- on the built in readout, and arrive at my work at 52 AVE on the SG.

Sensei, I feel we can move on together, and learn not to leave a footprint on the rice paper of ecodriving despite what the real world throws at us.

Strength brother.
