I am really surprized at just how many of you say gauges and engine kill switch. I would have thought the biggest gains were to be made in the aero departments. this was immediately where I was going to focus on but now it has changed my strategy somewhat. Engine off coasting will not be possible as my car has power steering and brakes heavily depend on engine running. I will be doing mostly highway travel. climb to work and freewheel back home. it is quite a busy road and I will need to break and swerve at a moments notice to avoid the truck and taxis here that drive as they please.
