Thanks, I will try this. My commute has lots of lights and I get stopped 90% of the time with fresh red lights. Probably half my commute is lights.

I did this today and it was awesome ;D

Very good. I was a trucker for 2 years, and this was one way we were taught to increase fuel mileage (plus avoid the headache of start/stops.) It takes a bit to get used to, and people will get upset and impatient being behind you. It's all worth it.

Somebody recently asked me about regenerative braking in a hybrid. Regen is a good way to re-capture some of the energy that you already expended to get the vehicle going. Braking, even regen-braking, ALWAYS wastes energy. 100% of the energy can't be recaptured.
It's far better to slow down at a distance back from a red light, and roll through it on a green light (although slower than you were driving) then it is to come to a stop (even with regen,) only to have to waste gas to get going again.
