Wow thats lower then when I started driving in the late 70's it was around
64 cents a gallon.

Wow! For those looking to solely reduce cost when hypermiling, at what price point does it take to not make enough of a difference?

^That might do it... for a while.

Filled several gas cans at $1.49 today at a station's Grand Opening. Did I get ripped off?

If they gave me the gas, I would not stop driving for best mileage.

$1.49 here today, my last fill was $1.549, I think with AmEXP card so a few more cents off.

Blink and you'll miss it--Gas Buddy says they're back up to $1.31.

My fuel bill is roughly halved by hypermiling. Even at 47c/ gallon that's still ~$800 saved annually.

But even when I was supplied with a company vehicle, I still hypermiled it. I even ecomodded it a bit.

Fuel prices are not following the international low-pricing trend in Brazil, as they were used last year for political purposes. Now, the bill was transfered to the weakest side of the equation...

I just filled up both cars, 34.094 gallons for under $19. $.54/gallon by using our fuel discount. I had bought gift cards for gas that i had to buy anyway, got 4x fuel points in december and redeemed them all at once today.

One Gallon of Milk Is Now Worth About Two Gallons of Oil: Chart - Bloomberg Business

Both oil and milk are subsidized...

I tried to time lights when I drove a school bus. I am not sure what else to say about hypermiling a bus. Only bad people EoC in an automatic. Both the school buses and the Army trucks that I have driven had governors, so I could not have sped if I wanted to, but I have always tried to plan ahead to minimize braking.

...and breaking. The mechanic said that I gave him job security.
