Hello everyone. I've been reading the boards and keep seeing users referencing that mileage is improved if you can learn to drive the vehicle in EV as long as possible. I have a 2008 FWD Escape Hybrid (only 2 weeks old!). How do I know if I am in/out of EV? Is there a gauge or something I need to look at or is it simply by the way the engine sounds (or doesn't sound)? I'm sure it's obvious and I will feel stupid for asking but I'm still asking!

Thanks in advance.
