I am DennisO. I have been visiting this website off and on for the last few months. I just signed up as a member so I may learn even more about improving gas milage. My wife and I are looking to purchase a Toyota Hybrid, I sell Toyota. We are unsure as to which one we will choose and we are using this website to aid us in our decision. I look forward to hearing from all of you, and promise that I will not bother anyone about sales etc. You can contact me if you have any questions or comments, I look forward to it!

Hello and welcome to the club. You should start by knowing your car’s EPA rating located at FuelEconomy.gov (http://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/findacar.htm) and make sure to read the article “Beating the EPA” (http://www.cleanmpg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1510).
Make sure you air your tires up to the maximum pressure indicated on the tire’s sidewall.
Also, consider purchasing a ScanGaugeII (http://www.cleanmpg.com/forums/showthread.php?p=103426). It is an invaluable source of information and will quickly pay for itself in fuel savings.
However, please be careful as hypermiling is addictive. :)

atlaw4u, do you have that post saved somewhere on your computer?
But, welcome DennisO. With you being in sales maybe you could tell your customers about hypermiling and what kind of numbers you get from you car. Get even more people saving gas.
