Remove any excess weight and cargo from your trunk and backseat. It takes time, and can be annoying to clean up the car, but it's a great way to save on gas. Without realizing you might be losing a few MPG (Miles Per Gallon) by just having things in your car!
Respecting the speed limit might sound boring and hard to do, but it actually is a great thing to keep your RPM (Revolutions Per Minute) low, which, will help you drive at a smooth and reasonable pace.
Avoiding excessive idling and also be a great way to save gas.
Idling can use a quarter to a half gallon of fuel per hour, so don't forget that when you're at the grocery store waiting or picking someone up. Keep in mind that you should also avoid to restart your engine excessively.
Use cruise control on long drives and on the freeway. Using Cruise Control will help you keep your foot off the pedal, because we are not robots, and our foot continuously goes on and off the pedal at some point for no reason.
