Hypermiling and brake wear (or lack thereof)
I started hypermiling my 2008 Kia Rondo three months ago, and I really like the 25% boost in fuel economy. Coasting to lights and keeping speed down on rural roads / highways has really helped.
One thing I noticed real quick is that I use my brakes MUCH less than I did prior to hypermiling. I'm curious--what's the going rate among you hypermilers out there in terms of brake life, either in wear or miles between replacement?
