Track Your Tire Pressure<\/h3>\n

One of the easiest ways to improve your fuel economy is by keeping an eye on your tire pressure. Not only are underinflated tires a hazard, but they also cause excess fuel usage. Some modern vehicles have tire pressure monitoring systems that will tell you when things get low. If you don\u2019t have one, we suggest getting in the habit of checking your tire pressure when you fill up for gas.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Keep Your Speed Down<\/h3>\n

Quick accelerations, sharp braking, and going over the speed limit are all associated with lower fuel economy. If lowering your gas consumption is one of your goals, take it easy in the driver\u2019s seat. Try to anticipate what is to come so you can slow down and speed up gradually and keep your speed in check. Not only will you save on\u00a0<\/span>gas<\/span>\u00a0but you\u2019ll increase the life of your tires saving even more over time.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
