Converted a hypermiler

Me and my buddy Joey (with the white accord that i had posted with the K&N cone on it) tend to go around place alot and i was explaining to him how cruising never using more than 1/4 throttle you can get places just as quick usually. So when we can we just carpool but even just by hypermiling his MPG went up from 25-26 to 33MPG around town and i broke a best in town with the camino of 20.32 Just realized how to make pulse and glide work and time lights
