All in favour?
I wonder how many people just come to this site and read about techniques, then incorporate them into their daily driving. I see, admittedly rarely, people driving using techniques that are proven effective. Driving the speed limit or slower, coasting to red lights, mostly the first stages of what we call hypermiling.

When I first came here a while back there were predictions of $5 a gallon in the US by today's date. Now we are looking at half that price.

We see car companies adopting some of our ideas. While cheap fuel may delay that process, can we really call the fuel "cheap". I just hope that someone can find a nice decent paying job or maybe a few million with the money we are not spending on fuel. My last week cost me $18.17.
