Hi GoNavy:
___I am still waiting to hear back from an Escape HEV owner before I have a good feel as to what works and doesn’t in a range of hybrid and non-hybrid automobiles at a range of speeds including those already posted for the Prius I, II, HH, and RXh all the way down to the non-hybrids which I have a pretty good feel for with my own experiments late last week. I will try and come up with a better overall P&G thread sometime in the near future but Krousdb and friends are the ones who somewhat perfected the technique long before I had my shot at using it in Carl’s Prius II. With that, there are a number of other hypermiling techniques you should consider placing in the tool box for high, intermediate, and low speeds, light, intermediate, and heavy traffic, and even road conditions (lights, sign’s, obstacles, and parking lots). Once the tools have been practiced and somewhat perfected, just use the appropriate tool at the appropriate time and bingo, Extreme Hypermileage is in your immediate future
___Good Luck
