well, aside from using the seat warmers instead of the cabin heater, I'm probably gonna be the guy with the EV plates showing the townsfolk what it can do at every stoplight, so don't count on me for an efficiency competition.
Did some more figuring:
energy wise, 1 gal gasoline is 33kwh, an ICE is maybe %33 efficient though, so @$0.10/kwh vs $2/gal is more like $3.3 for 33kwh vs $6.66/gallon usable, or something like that.
Flooring it doesn't seem to affect range too bad as long as you stay off the brakes and only regen when you have to (I shift to neutral when I'm going fast enough, with the throttle still on the floor), it is still very much pulse and glide. Avoiding complete stops seems to be the most helpful.
