NINE WAYS TO CONSERVE YOUR GASOLINE

With the help of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), we put together nine easy ways to save on gasoline.

  • 1. Slow Down
    One of the best ways to save on gas is to reduce your speed. According to the DOE, every 5 mph you drive over 60 mph represents a 7-percent decrease in fuel economy.
  • 2. Check Your Tire Pressure
    Under-inflated tires have more rolling resistance, which causes you to burn more fuel to keep the truck moving. Refer to your owner's manual, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (if equipped), or the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) label on or near the driver's side door. Properly inflated tires may improve your fuel economy by up to 3.3 percent.
  • 3. Accelerate With Care
    Fast acceleration wastes fuel. Accelerate modestly so the transmission can shift up into the higher gears more efficiently. Rapid acceleration and braking can lower your gas mileage by up to 33 percent on the highway and up to 5 percent during city driving.
  • 4. Drive a Consistent Speed
    Follow the lead of trucks and keep a consistent speed. Constant acceleration and deceleration reduces fuel economy. Consider using cruise control when appropriate.
  • 5. Avoid Excessive Idling
    Idling your vehicle gets 0 miles per gallon.
  • 6. Stick with Stock
    New wheels and tires may look cool, but if they're not the same as the OEM specifications, they could create more resistance, thereby reducing fuel economy.
  • 7. Clean Out Your Truck
    Carrying around extra baggage – or anything that you don't need for that trip – only adds extra weight to your truck and impacts fuel economy. For example, depending on your vehicle's weight an extra 100 pounds could decrease your MPG by up to 2 percent.
  • 8. Plan Your Trips
    Consider grouping your trips instead of making several trips to accomplish your daily tasks. Several short trips may use twice as much fuel as a single, longer trip that covers the same distance.
  • 9. Use Proper Maintenance Fluids and Replacement Parts
    Always use the engine oil, replacement parts and any other fluids that the manufacturer recommends. Change your oil at the recommended intervals and follow the manufacturer's guidelines for all routine maintenance.

Percentage savings are from U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and their website www.fueleconomy.gov.
