Follow-up to "Fun With Hypermiling"

A few weeks ago, we at the CarGuyChristian blog highlighted our wildly successful series, "Fun With Hypermiling" which actually broke down the costs and benefits associated with Hypermiling and theories on fuel-saving techniques.

Not only did our research come up with some interesting findings and conclusions but, more importantly, it got people talking about fuel savings.

We received a lot of feedback and e-mails (keep those letters and notes coming, folks!), but one fan sent me a link that I thought was another great source of information. Plus, we like the fact that it takes some of the mystery out of internet chatter, and actually looks to replace it with intelligent reasoning. Do we agree with all of it? Not necessarily. But we do feel that giving people the information to help them think for themselves is much more valuable.


The proof? As the fan wrote me in his e-mail, "The aggregate savings at the gas station is lost by the time spent in filling your tank twice as often and at slower rates. Better to maintain your car and stop driving like a jerk." That's a man with an opinion!

In any event, take a look for yourself, and we'd love to hear what you think! Leave us a comment, or join the discussions over on Facebook.
