Help!! My gas mileage is eating me alive!!
There are some practical steps that you can take to reduce your fuel bill, apart from having your vehicle tuned up.
You can make your car more efficient by making sure that you don’t carry anything in it more than you need. For instance, leaving behind the baby’s buggy or the extra bag that you may be taking with you. This includes not filling the car up with gas; fill more often, but with less gas.
Make sure your tires are inflated, and take a look at how you drive. The more smoothly you drive, the less your car will use. So accelerate and stop gradually, and try to get to the highest gear possible as soon as possible.
