Hello-my name is Matt Kelly and I just read an interesting article about hypermilers and joined this forum to meet some of you. I'd like to request an interview with some of you if possible. It would be for a podcast about the subject to be featured on www.PodTech.net...you can view and listen to some of my shows at www.nextgearshow.com. Feel free to write to me at mattk@podtech.net if you would be interested in participating. It would be via the phone and shouldn't take more than 10-20 minutes of your time. (My call.) I'd like to do 3-4 interviews and splice them together for a 15 minute show if possible. Hope to hear from you!

Thanks,

Matt Kelly

Hi Matt,

I have two suggestions:

1) CleanMPG.com - those folks are the real hard-core hypermilers

2) Ask individuals - go to the mileage database and you'll find a listing of top mileage folks. Just contact them with a private message and see who answers.

GOOD LUCK!

I'm averaging 70+ in my 2-week old '07 Prius and I haven't been flipped off or honked at.

Would I qualify?

i might be. i have already done one on the air with a channel in cincinnati, ohio.......

also, as someone suggested, stop in at cleanmpg.com, you will find a very willing audience over there..

I might be interested as well.

My numbers aren't that high since I share my car with other drivers.

My time behind the wheel on my commute is usually in the 70's.

Welcome to GH.

If you'd like to contact me, feel free. www.cleanMPG.com is a site dedicated to hypermiling, while GH is more about Hybrids and getting hybrid information and truths out there, as well as providing them with a community.
