Yes, my wife used to give me a hard time about my driving.. My speed is inconsitant instead of 5 over the limt all the time and I drive around corners fast to maintain momentum. Once I drove our sentra across town and got 45 MPG instead of 27 that she generally averages she started to realize there is a method to my madness!

Using more gas than you need to is money down the drian in the purest sense. You will never see it again and you left less fule for the rest of the world.. Plus it's fun to set new records and get compact car mpg our of a pickup or hybrid mpg out of a standard compact!
