With the constant rise in gas prices and the downfall of the economy, even the most wasteful consumers think twice. Conserving our natural resources is not only important to the well-being of the human race but also our wallets. Regardless of whether you do it for the environment, our well-being, or your wallet, here are some gas-saving tips to help you out.
Check your tires. Every time you drive your car you should take a quick stroll around it to check for low or flat tires. The actual pressures should be measured monthly especially when the outside temperature starts changing drastically. Low tire pressure will decrease your fuel mileage significantly. Having properly inflated tires will not only give you optimum mpg's (miles per gallon), but extend the life of your tires.
Lighten up. Remove any unnecessary items from the car and the trunk. Decreasing the weight of the car will increase your mpg's.
