Are You Ready To Conserve Gas and Save Money? Here are some tips to save as much as 37% right away:
- Keep you tires properly inflated. This saves as much as 15%.
- Keep your car engine tuned up. A badly tuned car can INCREASE gas mileage usage by 20%.
- Today's engines do not need to "warm up" before driving off. Start your car and drive off.
- Don't let your car idle except at stop signs and traffic signals (Hybrids shutdown automatically). If you're stopping for more than 30 seconds (yes, the day of the Drive-Thru is over!), turn off your engine.
- Accelerate and decelerate smoothly. Cruise control saves gas - except - in hilly and mountainous areas.
- Drive 55 MPH instead of 65 MPH. You use 7% MORE gas when you drive over 60 MPH.
