That's the whole problem. People don't want to change, but when it becomes a necessity it's a different story.

that was the end of the report...they did a whole thing on hypermiling with wayne gerdes in his accord and in the reporters yukon suv-granted it wasnt in depth but ...they also showed a scan gage,discussed it etc...it was a decent overview of hmiling and am sure it was an eye opener to many...

I laughed today when a SUV (grand cherokee like one i have) they passed me doing 56 mph then 10 minutes later spotted them up ahead turning into there drive way.. me getting 50+mpg them getting maybe 20 if there lucky at 60mph and getting there 1 minute before me.. they could have gotten there 1 minute later and gained a few MPG by going 55..My jeep looses 2mpg between 55 and 60mph..
