I tried this on the way to work today and it was really hard to keep the revs down that low. Especially, when trying to come up to freeway speeds.

So, I think I’m going to try a modified approach to this. I’m going to try (man will this be hard) to lay off the gas as much as possible, accelerate a little more smoothly and coast a bit more to buffer the ebb and flow of traffic. The way I drive now, I’m lucky if I get 18 mpg (mixed driving – city/freeway), but hopefully I’ll see some improvement.
