YES!! It starts as a simple carbon clean-out, but then I decide that maybe a little more throttle will really do it good. Then I decide, heck, this tank is a wash anyway, may as well go for it. Just proves how a goal can really keep one disciplined. Even on a more micro level, a few inefficient situations - like light timing, getting cut off etc. - can make an entire trip seem like a loss. I guess it's all about keeping your losses low and getting back on track.

And not just hypermiling. In my efforts to gain weight, a missed meal sometimes turns into an entire day of lazy eating. Or a bad workout turns into a missed workout. Conversely, a good effort sometimes carries over into continued and improved effort.
