If somebody offers you something that claims huge results for a couple hundred dollars, you “BS-meter” should be pegged.
. . .I text and drive. . .I also manage to do pulse and glide. Although, I only drive 1 mile per day. For the record PaG'ing is not terribly effective when your commute is exactly up hill for .25 miles downhill .1 mile, stop for red light, .1 mile slightly down hill, turn speed limit 15 mph, coast to a stop. and then do it in reverse. I coast all the way (.25 miles) down the hill though in the afternoons, sometimes with my engine off because the speed limit increases so I don't have to break and I have a wide high speed turn and then I'm home.

Come to the conclusion its too much effort for such a short drive, because if I drive normally I fill up(10 gallons) maybe once every three weeks.
