YKYAEM when
1. You think twice about telling the Tesla driver that they are going the wrong way out of the parkade because they are going the shorter and therefore more efficient way.

2. You are in a lousy mood and driving like the car is your mood , then you find yourself automatically gliding after your mood-induced pulse.

3. You read on ecomodder about vskid3's ebike build to replace an Insight and go alongside a Prius as a second vehicle and you still are thinking of ways to make the ebike work more efficiently using techniques learned here on ecomodder:
-coasting to stops and any place you need to slow down,
-anticipating ahead,
-aero-mod,
-tire pressure optimized for best handling (because over-clocked bicycles need all the help they can get and are going to get best rolling when on wheels rather than sliding on side along pavement been there on my me-bike--that is me-powered.)
-driving with load

Then you realize you have probably learned some of those techniques from the person you propose to teach. Thanks Vskid3
