Just checked on Google maps and my "longer" route is actually 50 yards shorter! It is just a bit twistier so seems longer.
Actually saving petrol is not a priority for me. My average monthly fuel cost is £70 so even a 10% saving is neither here nor there. I treat Hypermiling as a game. My object is to beat my high score. It makes driving, which I love doing, even more of a challenge!
