You know you are a hypermiler when;

...You leave for work a half hour earlier than you used to, and get to work later, and don't stop for coffee anymore.

... You used to play the "punch-bug" game on road trips, but now play the "Prius-pass" game( same as punch-bug, but only when a Prius passes you).

...A guy at work asks if you've converted your car to electric, because he's never heard the engine running as you pull into your parking place, from the road, around the shop, and the road goes by HIS parking place( about a half mile total).
