Last week I posted
6 tips for saving fuel that were suggested by NASCAR and Traffic.com. They were simple car maintenance tips to help you get better mileage out of your ride.
Today
CARandDRIVER.com sent me a much more comprehensive list of 16 fuel-saving tips, and, just like their name, theirs show it's both the car
and driver that contribute to how much gas you burn through.
While they also recommend you keep your tires properly inflated, reduce the load in your car and make sure to keep it tuned, their experts add some things to the mix that require you, Leadfoot, to keep your driving habits in check.
Valuable tips in topics like "Chill Out", "Slow Down", "Avoid Start-and-Stop Driving", "Idle in Neutral" and "Pay Attention to the Timing of Stoplights", will keep you from wasting that $4 premium you're working overtime to buy.
