Eco-driving

I've read about eco-driving a bit and gave it a serious go lately. My morning commute is about 10 miles and kept a close eye on my mileage with my ScanGuage, a gift from Frau Goat. My usual morning commute mileage is around 30 mpg, even getting below 29 if I hurry a great deal. But by watching my tachometer and staying under 2k RPM, I got 34, 35, and 36 mpg on three consecutive days. Usually I don't get that kind of mileage unless I'm on the highway for a couple of hours. Give this a shot (and leave earlier since you'll be driving slower).
