Default Top 10 Ranking of FE Killers

As a brank new HCH II owner, I've been trying many of the great pieces of advice by you hypermilers out there.

Would you be willing to weigh in on what you would consider the greatest benefits to FE (fuel economy) by posting your ranking of what the greatest killers of FE are? If you could give a rationale as to why you've placed them in the order you listed, it would be a great debate to start.

Listed alphabetically

1 - Air Conditioner on

2 - Cruise control use

3 - Full tank vs. half tank of gas

4 - Hills

5 - Jack Rabbit starts

6 - Low Tire pressure

7 - Stop and Go driving

8 - Weather (temp and rain)

9 - Weight in trunk

10 -Wind Resistance

(if you have any others I've missed, please feel free to add them to the list)
