Hypermiling the Twelve Days of Christmas

All together now, you know the tune..


On the Twelfth day of Christmas...................


Twelve months of Summer......

Eleven pipers pushing......

Ten knots of tailwind......

Nine rolling starts......

Eight lanes for passing......

Lower NoX emissions......

Six tanks of gas.....




FIVE___MILES___OF___FAS....





Four half worn tires.....

Three green lights.....

Two HybridFest’s....

AND A PRIUS HYBRID SYN__ER__GY DRIVE.




Merry Christmas Ya'll

Randall
