Gas Saving Tips!!

USE OVERDRIVE GEARS~When you use overdrive gearing, your car's engine speed goes down. This saves gas and reduces engine wear.
USE CRUISE CONTROL~Using cruise control on the highway helps you maintain a constant speed and, in most cases, will save gas.
AVOID EXCESS IDLING~Idling gets 0 miles per gallon. Cars with larger engines typically waste more gas at idle than do cars with smaller engines.
REMOVE EXCESS WEIGHT~Avoid keeping unnecessary items in your vehicle, especially heavy ones. An extra 100 pounds in your vehicle could reduce your MPG by up to 2%. The reduction is based on the percentage of extra weight relative to the vehicle's weight and affects smaller vehicles more than larger ones.
OBSERVE THE SPEED LIMIT~While each vehicle reaches its optimal fuel economy at a different speed (or range of speeds), gas mileage usually decreases rapidly at speeds above 60 mph.
DRIVE SENSIBLY~Aggressive driving (speeding, rapid acceleration and braking) wastes gas. It can lower your gas mileage by 33 percent at highway speeds and by 5 percent around town. Sensible driving is also safer for you and others, so you may save more than gas money.
