It’s fairly common amongst hardcore prius owners to accelerate at slower/different speeds in order to keep the gas engine from turning on. All to save 4 mpg. :bowrofl:
And it makes peoples blood boil
there should be a law that if you’re a hyper miler, you’re not allowed to drive in heavy traffic and especially the hammer lane
I wonder what the cost savings in gas vs cost of the stupid shit that will add up to repairs will be.
they dont save money in the long run
:lol: :bigclap: Best parody thread EVER!
Driving in Reverse?
In order to boost my 15.2 MPG I’ve been seeing, to somewhere around 15.5 and to get a better estimate on my computer…I’ve recently been staying out of reverse. I figure driving in reverse isn’t going to accurately pinpoint the exact number of miles driven, therefore screwing up my estimates. Plus reverse is a low gear and it will eat up a little more gas, because there isn’t a higher gear to shift into.
I’ve been doing fairly well so far, except for at work a couple times and the movie theater once. I had to go over a curb each time to prevent me from having to go into reverse. I bent a tie rod, and screwed up my sub frame a bit. It was over $2400 in repairs and labor, but the gas savings is worth it.
I have a 7-Passenger luxury SUV, so I also haven’t allowed anyone to drive with me, for fear that the extra weight will take a toll on my mileage. I make my girlfriend drive her own truck places and just follow me. Before you accuse me of being a bad boyfriend, I do give her gas money to follow me. $80 just this week!
As soon as someone responds seriously, just respond with “YOU FUCKING IDIOT THIS WAS A FAKE POST!”
At highway speeds you could remove the belt from your P/S pump, and you wouldn’t feel any different. (Please, nobody try to remove their belt while driving at highway speeds!) The only time you need P/S is in parking lots.
I loled hard at that.
I actually enjoy never having to put gas in my honda.
when 40$ gets you 400 miles apposed to ~260 miles, its awesome.
I find myself driving alot more and alot less frustrated about having to turn around because my wife is an idiot who forgets her shadow.
