Anyone can do that. OTOH, if you can do it while going uphill... ;-)

LOL, of course a modern EFI vehicle uses less fuel if you coast with it
in the highest gear and the throttle closed. Drop it out of gear or use
the clutch and it uses fuel to keep the engine spinning.


The farthest I've ever coasted downhill was about seven and a half
miles, after I ran out of gas at four in the morning.

Well that obviously was not here in Florida, but sounds like an adventure.
