I used to be a 'jack rabbit' but now with a more open work schedule and steady shift times, I can afford to leave earlier/drive slower-more eco minded/etc.

Cool. Improvement is good! Good to hear from you.
NC is pretty warm this time of year really - I'm sure you need your a/c. I found that A/C draws lots of mechanical as well as electrical power. The electrical ultimately comes from your fuel so anything you can do to reduce a/c should help.
Ideas: collapsible silver reflectors for inside windshield - fold up into a circle. These really help me. Park with windows cracked 3/4 inch. Start drive with windows open to change out air. Wooden beaded seat covers are even cooler than cloth velour seats, under $15 at big box parts stores.
