from what I've seen, in modern driving techniques, the most popular way to improve fuel efficiency is never stop for red lights
-
Would definitely like to see Jeremiah make a big HHO generator
-
one of the best things you can do ties very well with the "watch how you drive, keep your foot out of it" line is to try to use your brakes as little as possible. obviously there will be times where you have to come to a stop, but there may be plenty of times where you can just let off the gas earlier and coast for longer, letting gravity and friction slow you down instead of braking.
-
The savings with throttle and brake discipline is mind boggling.
-
Dude, Ecomod a small hybrid like a Honda CR-Z and then Ecomod something really uneconomical like a Hellcat to see which you can make a bigger difference on! That would be awesome.
-
Yes please! Make a hyper-miler!! Also you should power it with Jeramiah's engine. Side-note: Justin's really gotten comfortable and is a lot fun to watch as a presenter now!
-
It was super cool when Mythbusters did the hydrogen cell and it did nothing, but then turned around and showed that a regular carbeureted car will absolutely run off of direct hydrogen injection into the carb, at least until it backfired.
-
That's my "Roadmaster" (Its actually a Caprice Wagon) featured at 11:11. The guy i bought it from built it to hypermile and tow trailers. It has a 5 speed out of a Chevy truck too. It easily gets 30mpg. It can get even better mileage if you keep your foot out of it.
-
Justin is definitely a great addition to the team, and he's fitting in really well. Great stuff.
-
I can still remember the Mythbusters episode about the tailgate up/down. Literally one of the most definitive results in the shows entire history.
-
damn i would absolutely LOVE to see yall truly try to make a hyper-miler car. ecomodding is wild but i would LOVE to see it work ahah how sick would it be to get a mustang to like 60mpg
-
Using cruise controls is a huge way to help increase your MPG.
-
I think a hyper eco modded vehicle with Jeremiah’s hydrogen genny would be an interesting series. Start it in stages like Hi-Low and keep adding to it until you reach peak geek or startling efficiency!
-
Justin really is a dope new addition to the donut team, love to see him get more comfortable infront of the camera!
-
I'm not even a car guy, but do love this channel, got my cousin a car guy watching you guys, I think we need to put Jeremiah brain to the test.
-
The windows up thing is actually variable. If you're riding slow, the air resistance will be naturally lower, and thus the impact of the windows being open is much lesser. HOWEVER after a certain speed threshold, the air resistance becomes much higher (the faster you go the more the wind resistance affects you), so having the windows up becomes more fuel efficient
-
Using cruise control helped me the most. Leave early and just cruise the speed limit
-
It's so awesome seeing Justin get more confident in front of the camera, he's a great addition so far.
-
I love Justin, he has great presence and personality, and is a joy to watch! :)
-
the fact that they still have the "supercharger" on the vw shows dedication
