Hello from Car Crazy LA!

Hello all!

Greetings from car-crazy California! I can confidently say that some of the hypermilling techniques (really basic ones at this point) have already started to save me $$$ on gas! Looking forward to finding ways to increase mileage for all three of my vehicles!

- Quinta

Welcome to EM! I see from your garage that your Honda is "on the way". Is it an automatic or manual transmission?

Automatic. I will be picking it up in Northern California in about two weeks, and driving it down to SoCal. Should make for an interesting trip, as I plan on keeping it around 55/60 on cruise the whole way down.
