oh yea, this goes to all hypermiler..... make sure you know the road the ur driving on. don't turn off ur engine when you know there's a turn coming up cus unless ur engine is on, you lose power steering. i had to learn that the hard way when i first started and almost kill myself; i barely made it through the turn and thats because i was quick enough to get the engine running again. when you turn off your engine, make sure you switch the ignition back to the "ON" position as soon as you can to prevent steering wheel to lock up. like "OrdnanceMarine" said, your life>.1-.5 extra mpg.
