Re:How to drive a hybrid (Score 1)

I was going to post something about "not this BS again" (article title implies that non-hybrids are magically not affected by the new ratings), but instead - THANK YOU for posting some common sense tips. Use them in your daily commutes and watch your mileage increase. Get a real-time mileage readout gauge, if your car doesn't have one. If you're not driving in snow, inflate your tires to the max sidewall pressure (on the tire itself) and see better traction and another mileage bump. Learn the timing of stoplights on your common routes so you hit as many as possible all green. There's more, but these plus the ones posted above are the big ones. And most can be applied to any car, hybrid or otherwise.

Full disclosure: I am a Prius owner, currently 400 miles into a tank.... at 75 MPG. EPA ratings don't mean squat if people put some effort into driving efficiently.
