This post...Oh, you can save a lot more than a few.<br /><br />This post was originally written in 2009, at the very very beginning of my journey into mileage maximization.<br />These days I get 30mpg average out of that truck, for a savings of roughly $2000 a year compared to the typical driver in the same model.<br /><br />Along the way I also won (runner p) in an online energy efficiency contest, got a gig writing for the premier gas saving website, ecomodder.com, and had a YouTube video made of my driving techniques filmed by a website based in Spain!<br /><br />That said, your method (not owning a car at all) blows all hypemiling techniques out of the water as far as not using fuel :)Bakarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04002145755975841287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2399966929964838853.post-34866126837880189712013-01-30T08:20:49.527-08:002013-01-30T08:20:49.527-08:00When I was a broke car owner (glad to no longer be...When I was a broke car owner (glad to no longer be either!)

Thanks for the detailed results!Merissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12743601157123154506noreply@blogger.com
