Gas Mileage

For what ever reason the site won't let me do a search when I'm logged in. Anyway a while ago there was a lengthly thread about gas mileage. Can someone post that link?
Thanks for your help

I have not been able to access the search function for several days. I emailed the moderator, thinking the problem might be on my end, but evidently it is a problem for everyone. I thought that it would have been rectified by now.

the best, and cheapest thing you can do to improve your mpg is to tread lightly on that gas pedal. keep the rpms under 2-3k. drive 55-65 on the freeway.

other options:
high-flow air filter
over-inflated tires
keep your windows rolled up
losin weight (spare, running boards, half tank of gas...etc)
ebay gimmicks sprinkled with a bit of fairy dust
...i'm sure there are more but i'm drawing a blank

i'm lookin forward to the hybrid expy - 25 mpg city! that'll be hot
