1) Don't use your brakes, explain that they just wast energy/ fuel. (everyone I tell this to "gets" in and changes their driving style)
2) Speed matters much more than you think, but don't over do it, time is also valuable (wording is critical)
3) Don't Idle unless it is useful in some way
4) Tire pressure up up up. Mention that when road racing I run higher pressure than on the street . . .
5) A good quality thinner oil definitely helps especially on larger engines (did 1.3 mpg/10% + for my dad's 5.4 E-350)
That's my opinion, I go for things I think that people will actually do, once they start seeing savings, they will look harder for them selves.
