Some coats nowadays, mainly parkas, can way up to 20 lbs! not only is that excess weight when you are hypermiling, it's heavy! Solution: your car heater
Maximizing on your car heater is the way to go. This is best done when the weather is a bit cool, not extremely cold.
Simply put your heater a little lower than it's max output, and stay warm. When you are walking to your shopping location or outing, you can still park far away, just turn up your heat. That parka, and jacket in general, is not needed.
And as I have mentioned earlier, the EASIEST apparel item to go light on is socks. wear socks that cut off at the ankle, you don't really need the rest. When you integrate this into your daily routine, the extra weight really adds up!
But c'mon Generally, you don't need that parka everyday! it's excess weight! hypermile yo! /^^\
