Thanks for the 'hi' everyone.
Props to weather_spotter for referring me to the site. I certainly hope to be following some of the examples of him and daox. The boat tail is a real work of art. I haven't seen #s yet on how efficient it makes you tho. Upper air dam is what I'm aiming for as my first mod.
EPA+70% just from driving style!!? Wow. Sounds like I need to focus lots of energy on that.
Just gassed up my car yesterday, so am ready to start hypermiling for real. Previous to yesterday I was doing some basics:
Looking way ahead to traffic lights
Trying to avoid braking too much for corners
Rolling stop signs in 2nd gear
Keeping my tire pressure at 32psi.
Always using 'pull through' parking spots at grocery stores, etc.
Using cruise control for flat highway cruising, not exceeding speed limit by >5mph.
Turn off car if idling for >5 minutes.
Stay in high gear unless accelerating.
Windows for ventilation <45mph.
Trying to avoid using lift frequently (>6400rpm)
Using my bicycle for commuting
