Hi From California

Just joined the group after looking around the web for eco driving programs. Glad to have found ecomodder and all it offers. I own a company that trains drivers to be safer and save on fuel. Found the information on the ecomodder site interesting enough to put a blog article on my site about it.

big rig drivers? or daily car drivers?

While 'adjusting the nut behind the wheel is a big part......
Really need to have a gauge to provide instant feedback.
(see scangauge link in sig)

Welcome, Greg!

I'd love to see someone make a go of offering professional ecodriving instruction to the public.

I used to teach defensive driving... and sometimes still do ecodriving sessions for fun.
