HOW TO SAVE AT THE GAS PUMP

Here are some tips . . .

1. Drive at a moderate speed - This is a big factor. The faster you drive, the more fuel it takes to power the car, lowering your miles per gallon.

2. Drive smoothly - Frequent hard acceleration and braking reduces miles per gallon, as well as decreasing the life of the engine, transmission, brakes, and tires.

3. Remove car-top carriers - Even driving with empty racks on the car reduces fuel economy.

4. Don't use premium fuel if you don't have to - Check your owner's manual for recommendations. If it specifies regular fuel, premium will not make the engine run better.

5. Some things that do not impact fuel economy - morning fill-ups, using air conditioning, and dirty air filters.
