Yup! And pop it into nuetral & let it coast the instant you see there's a stop coming up that you have enough speed to carry you the rest of the way by coasting. And if you can do A-B-A testing & determine your max mpg speed, then you can try to work your trips so you spend more time at that speed, too. Oftentimes, it'll be around 40 mph. If you can find routes where the speed limit is at or near your max mpg speed - and if you're lucky, has fewer stoplights, you can really "up" your city mpg using that trick.
In my car, I took a round trip to Reno early in my tank, and had 54.5 mpg average going for awhile. Since then, it's been all city, but by using the above tricks, the ScanGauge is still showing my average for the tank at 53.5 - more than a hundred miles later!! This might end up being my best tank ever if I'm lucky!!
