All,

I've had my HAH for one year and my avg. mileage is around 30 miles per hour. Early on when I was a little more active in the list, I saw several people discuss driving with load (DWL). My understanding of it was that you would give a little more gas going uphill in order to keep the ECO light on.

However, I never really mastered it and have simply een using cruise control when it's safe. This works fine except of course when going uphill - but I feel like I "get the extra work back" on the downhills.

Tonight I was driving home and I was crusing and then I _let up_ on the gas a bit going uphill and the ECO light stayed on the whole time going up, cresting, and going down the hill.

So I'd like to re-verify my understanding of DWL. Was my original understanding incorrect? Can one of the gurus out there re-explain DWL for me? I'd really like to see how much better mileage I can get than 30.3 .

Thanks,
Wes
