I'm sure many of you hypermiles will not be that impressed, but I got 74 mpg the other day on my way home. Yeah!!! I was excited. I ususally average around 53 mpg. I purchased my Insight to travel in the carpool lane so my speed is usually in the 60-80 mph which doesnt get the highest mpg. The other day I was really late going home so I missed the carpool hours and having very high winds on the San Mateo bridge and drafting with the trucks I did mangage to get 74. My old high was 68

... 3) drive in the far right lane at such a slow speed that everyone will pass you. Just curious what others have encountered?

So, let them pass you! Odds are you'll meet most of them at the next traffice light or STOP sign.

As they pass you, do your best not to grin too much. They might begin to suspect you know something they don't
