Chill Out!
Aggressive acceleration at green lights and stop signs wastes fuel. Pretend your driving with grandma and we bet you’ll add more mileage before your next fill up.
Rollin Smooth...
Keep your tires inflated: proper air pressure reduces rolling friction which causes your vehicle to use more fuel.
Lighten Your Load
Junk in your trunk? Take it out to reduce your car’s weight. For every extra 100 pounds in your vehicle could reduce your MPG by about 1%.
Are You In Tip Top Shape?
Get regular tune-ups: keeping your engine and other parts in top shape helps your car use fuel more efficiently.
Halt! Ok, go ahead.
Avoid stop-and-go traffic: Unless you have a hybrid, city driving greatly reduces your gas mileage. Combine trips or just skip them.

Cruisin' Together
Using cruise control is more than for use on highways. Did you know that cruise control regulates your gas which help avoid the gas pedal fluctuation? Use cruise control whenever possible.
You a Speed Racer?
Avoid high speeds as your car aerodynamic drag increases the faster you go. Going over about 50 miles an hour or more can reduce your MPG by $0.20 per gallon.
Aah... Breathe Clean Air
You could save up to $0.20 a gallon or more by simply changing your air filter. As the air filter gets clogged it reduces the air flow to the engine which causes more fuel consumption.
