With this in mind, here are some ways that you can reduce your gas consumption, and thereby spend less money at the pump. At the same time, you?ll also be helping the environment by putting fewer emissions into the air.
1. Avoid idling as much as possible. Modern engines do not need to be warmed up. In fact, they warm up better by driving them slowly, under a light load. Instead of using the drive-up window at the local fast food joint, consider going inside instead. If you do use the pick-up window, turn off the engine while you are in line. It takes less gas to restart a warmed-up engine than it does to idle for 30 seconds or more.
2. Accelerate and decelerate slowly. Don?t stomp on the gas peddle when the light turns green. Try to anticipate traffic flow and drive accordingly, keeping safety in mind at all times.

5. Check tire pressure. Improperly inflated tires create drag and reduce fuel efficiency by as much as 2%. Properly inflated are safer and they last longer.
6. Use the right gas. Check your owner?s manual for the right grade of gas for your car. It is a waste of money to use a higher grade then recommended.

Although it hurts to pay more at the pump, it can?t compare with the agony that so many in the Gulf Coast are enduring.
Thank you.
