100+ EcoDriving Tips to get Better Mileage in Your Car

There’s been a lot of buzz on the internet and on TV about ecodriving, hypermiling, ecomodding, or other techniques for saving fuel. EcoModder.com, a site dedicated to modifying cars and driving habits for fuel economy, recently released a list of 100+ hypermiling tips.

These tips are definitely worth a look for anyone interested in saving a few dollars at the pump, but before diving in, you should take a few cautions. This list seems pretty exhaustive, but that doesn’t mean you need to do every single thing. Practicing more techniques will save more gas, but they’re not all appropriate to every driver, car, or situation, so exercise this advice with care.

Does anyone do any of these things already? I wouldn’t call myself a hardcore EcoDriver, but I definitely practice quite a few.

John McCain is all wet. He thinks he has experience. Where is it? One doesn’t get experience without hands on training. When was John McCain ever President? You don’t get experience walking around the White House, or being near it. He’s out of it, or he thinks we are all out of it. We don’t need McCain as President, not even for one day.

Roddy, you are correct about actually being President, but the Presidency is an executive position. McCain has had much executive experience as a Navy officer.

And then we have Sarah Palin, who is the only person running for either of the top two offices who has experience as the head of a government entity. As head of the Alaska Air National Guard, which is our front line of defense of the country from attack from the North, she also has received many security briefings and has a security clearance that is greater than either of the Democrat candidates.
