I agree with DD 50 starts is quite a few. Reducing that number would be a good idea as well as having some way to monitor the battery voltage. Timing lights to reduce that number may help, assuming you are EOC to lights. Hypermiling tips 30, 32 and 33 deal with this subject. Route planning to reduce number of stops? Chose only higher payback time to EOC, longer lights or longer hills? Some aftermarket instantaneous MPG gauges contain functions to monitor battery charging with settable alarms to warn of possible problems and allow instant MPG feedback to help increase MPG.
