My other vehicle is a minivan, and I do use some of the techniques. Keeping up forward momentum is a good example. When I come up to a red light, I begin braking far in advance of the light, hoping to be able to keep from actually coming to a complete stop.
I don't get to drive the van very much so my limited time in it probably doesn't have much impact. But it's still a good thing to do anyway.
