Today on the way home, I decided to drive "normally"--or at least as normally as I could--habits are hard to break. I turned the A/C up, turned the radio on, and went just under the speed limit. It seemed very weird. I got 29.9 mpg on the overhead. That's almost 20 mpg lower than what I averaged hypermiling--my worst commute in over 8 months. Last time I got under 30 mpg was in January when it was snowing and 19 degrees.
Guess that shows how much hypermilling can do!
