and said : I don't subscribe to driving 55 on the highway. What I have found that gives me and extra 2-3, sometimes 4, extra MPG (in the mountains, esp) on my Ford F-150 is putting it neutral and coasting wherever possible. Also, when I see people waiting behind the stop line at a green light to make a left turn, I go around them for my turn because more often than not they wait until the light turns red and forfeit their chance to turn and I'll be damned if I'm going to waste gas because of their timidity.
