Hmmm...

I'd heard most of these. But not this one:
Drive Shoeless (to have a better feel of the accelerator/break; if your windows are up and your air conditioning is off this will also help keep you cool!)
Just be aware that in most states it is illegal to drive barefoot.
Aren't you the guy who hit me in the eye?

Not true!

EDIT: Hypermiling is very illegal in this state and the state police have put out PSA's stating that you will be ticketed if caught using this method...

EDIT part deux:(if your windows are up and your air conditioning is off this will also help keep you cool!)

And its a great way to get heat stroke.

Geez, hypermiling is no different than what we did when we were dirt-poor teenagers scrounging for gas money...

Gawd, we used to put the car in neutral going downhill and all that
stuff...LOL
