I'm the guy that sets his cruise control in the really twisty mountain roads, and hangs in there as fast as the tires will let me, and never EVER speed up on the straights like the typical duchebag drivers. If you can't hold it in the corners, let others pass you on the straights.
I like your style of driving.
Hypermiling should be spirited and fun, with long coasts in neutral taking advantage of the terrain
pulse n gliding or cruising slow when traffic permits.
I love the country road corners at 50 mph, my car handles tight , it has hard suspension for a stock set up so its very snug threw the corners.
