Time definitely is money. Simple driving style changes saved me over a gallon a day- every week that was more than a gas can that I didn't have to buy. Every three weeks I saved an entire tankful. How much time did I spend? My UG showed an average speed of 57.5 the one time I checked it. Not too shabby when you consider the highest PSL in my area is 55 and I spend a lot of time on lower speed roads.

Hypermiling helped me direct a whole lot of money to places other than commuting. I love it!
