I'm getting much better P&G results now that I'm using lower gears to pulse instead of the overdrive gear. I haven't done a full tank yet but I'm pretty sure I'm getting a 3-5 MPG increase over staying in gear. All of that rapid acceleration can't be good for the tires though and I'd probably drive passengers nuts if I drove this way with them in the car. Haha!

I'm starting to bump start more often as well but I'm wondering, has anyone had problems arise from doing a lot of bump starts?

Thanks again for the advice.
