5 Super Gas Saver Tips To Use Immediately

I am sure you have heard the old saying, "There are two things certain in life, death and taxes." Now we can add a third one to that list, rising fuel cost's. The cool thing is, we can do something about the rising fuel cost's. Did you know that you can become a super gas saver by utilizing key gas saving tips? In the following article I'll give you 5 easy to use gas saving tips that you can start today and save money immediately.

The first step would be to check the air pressure in your tires. This is so simple to do and yet many never take the time. Checking the air pressure is important because it reduces wear and tear and will make your car run more efficiently. The more workload you put on your car the more fuel it will burn.

The next step involves planning how your car is to be utilized. I know you have been in a situation where you just get home and remember you needed something else. In some cases this simply can't be avoided but in most it can. Here's what you do, on Sunday plan out your week from going to the mall to grocery shopping and make a good list. If you have a solid plan then those "I forgot" trips will be a lot less frequent.

The third thing you want to consider is the proper use of cruise control. When your car is running on cruise control it is working at it's optimum efficiency. When using cruise control you should consult your cars user manual for correct operation. If you keep turning the cruise control on and off you will be mimicking acceleration and braking under standard driving conditions.

The fourth step is to clean out your car of any excess weight. As most of you know, we treat our cars like a secondary home. As we continue to add and take away items from the car we begin to leave items over time. Give your car a thorough cleaning and take out anything that is not pertinent to that day's needs. At the end of everyday, take out what you bring in to keep the weight and clutter down to a minimum.

Finally, you need to focus on driving at a constant speed and accelerate gradually. We need to leave our high school years behind us and drive like responsible adults who don't drive like maniacs. The more work load you put on your engine by aggressively accelerating and braking, the more fuel you are going to burn. I am not saying to drive like your grandmother but just keep notice of the speeds and how you drive from now on.

In closing, these 5 super gas saver tips can help bring down the cost of fuel greatly. This will not please everyone and for those who aren't, buying a hybrid car may be your answer. Some of us can't afford a hybrid especially in this economy, but there is another solution. Did you know you can turn your car into a hybrid? You can. If you really want to save a ton on gas then this is just what your looking for.
