I estimate I spend about half my driving time EOC coasting. My commute takes 30 minutes, so 15 of that is coasting. My car idles at 0.22 gph. That's .055 gallons each way, or 0.11 per day, or 13 cents. Times 21 work days per month equals $2.73 / month, or $32 / year.

That's only counting commuting, not extra trips.

I spent $387 over the last year on gas, so EOC is saving me roughly 8% in fuel costs.
