Default Re: Hypermilers Attempting FE Record in a Honda Insight

Sounds good. I guess I just don't like to equate cruise control with skill. Maybe I'd be happy if it was A drivers skill is worth 170mpg and cruise control is worth 115. One doesn't replace the other. They are apples to oranges. By saying the drivers skill is only worth 55mpg is assuming cruise control is part of the equasion which is very rarely if ever is the case. so drivers skill = 170mpg cruise control = 115mpg. Not drivers skill = 55mpg and cruise control = 115.

Does that make sense?
