Reactions to your hypermiling
Aside from other drivers on the road, what do your friends and family members think of your driving style? I'm talking about people close to you who at least have a general idea of what hypermiling is about. Are there any certain tactics that people think are cool? Extreme? Share your interesting stories.
I've convinced at least one person to be more anticipatory in her view of traffic signals. A buddy of mine is getting the hang of it, but has a love affair with 5k rpm and above that somewhat hampers his progress. I have been told that engine off pushing (out of the garage) is a bit extreme and unnecessary.
