Hey. he came out to a cruise, haven't seen him for years. He's married now, and said he's "Mr. Mom".
But yeah fellas, he has gotten like 450-500 miles to the tank.
While i love to drive hard in my wrx, since i've started hypermiling, i can't even imagine my wrx doing 350 miles to the tank. Well let me do a quick calculation: 25mpg x 15 gal. = 375. I guess this last tank i would have done it. But i do really miss driving my wrx when i'm hyper the yaris.

Those of you who live and drive on the flat plains could really get some good mileage, like Ewa, millilani, etc.
I'm doomed by the Koo'laus everyday, but, i do what i can.

He told me he's doing 'Home Security', and playing WoW.

Mythbusters tested this and it does work. i think he got like 10mpg more. they did it from like 5 car lengths 3 and then right on the *** of the car in front of you. even at the 5 it did show a small amount of improvement.
