Besides getting a horse, for which the well-heeled of Highlands Ranch surely have a rule against, I am trying to be good and stretch my gas mileage more these days. I kinda keep the tires on the beast inflated, I sort of do not speed anymore and I am more of an “easy on the gas when the light turns green” guy.
 
I have not subscribed to advanced hypermilling yet, but that may be the next step as rising gas prices continue to carve a new crevasse in my wallet.
