Hypermiling: How far would you go?

June 30th, 2008

Who does not like to save money on fuel costs especially when the gas prices are reaching an all time high. Well, every one does but no many are willing to incorporate those simple hypermiling secrets in their driving to save fuel as well as the environment. Hypermilers however are willing to walk that extra mile and take all the necessary steps to reduce emissions and improve fuel efficiency. For effective hypermiling, they generally overinflate their car tires in order to cut rolling resistance, coast with their engines off whenever possible, and even park their car at the highest point of a parking lot facing the exit to make use of gravity to get the car out.
