Better Mileage With a Few Adjustments
1. Warming up your vehicle in the driveway wastes gas. Drive slowly for the first few blocks instead to bring your engine to optimal driving temperature.
2. Smooth, gradual acceleration increases mileage; rapid starts waste gas. Try to maintain a steady rate of speed and take advantage of timed traffic lights.
3. Watch your speed. When traveling at a steady speed, most vehicles get thier best mileage between 35 and 45mph.
4. Proper tire inflation and wheel alignment decrease road resistance and increase mileage. Check tire pressure monthly and rotate tires using your vehicles specific maintenance schedule.
5. A well-maintained vehicle will run properly and use fuel more efficiently.
6. Use your air conditioning wisely. With the air on, your engine uses more fuel.
7. Don't vent your anger behind the wheel. Aggressive acceleration wastes gas and can be dangerous as well
