There are standard procedures for Hypermilers...
These include..
1. Keep moving as long as possible.
2. Keep the A/C switched off.... A/C increases fuel consumption by upto 15%
3. Keep the windows up. This reduces drag on the vehicle. Less Drag = More MPG
4. If you driving a pick up, drive with the tailgate down, again, this reduces drag.
5. Keep tyre pressures at their correct levels. Incorrect tyre pressures sre one of the biggest causes of increased fuel consumption.
6. Don`t be afraid to be overtaken. This is going to happen ... ALOT !!
