How You Can Get Better Gas Mileage

Your not alone if you are sick and tired of rising gas prices. At the gas pumps people are paying 30, 40, 50 dollars or more to fill up their cars with gasoline. There is not much you can do about the price of gas, but there are some things you can do to make your car use the gas more efficiently. Read below and find out how you can get better mileage and save some money.

Of course, it helps if you can buy a car that uses fuel efficiently, like one of the hybrids, but that is not always a choice we can afford. So you have to learn to make the best of the car you have. You can research your area and find the lowest price gas station in town. Gasoline tends to be denser or thicker in cooler temperatures, so try to go early in the morning or at night to fill up your gas tank.

If you keep your car in good condition, by keeping it maintained properly you will also help improve your gas mileage. Keep your car tuned up, and running well. Keep your tires inflated properly can also help. A lot of people don't realize that if your tires are under-inflated, they are wasting gas.

Make sure you change your oil, your oil filter and your air filter on a regular basis. This will help your car to run more efficiently.

Don't speed. If you drive the speed limit, you will use less fuel. You will get to where your going on time, and you will save gas. Plan your errands. Try to get all your chores done at the same time, this will eliminate wasted trips and wasted gas use.

Don't lug a lot of stuff around in your trunk. The heavier your car is, the more gas you will be using, so now you have an excuse to clean all that junk you have been piling in for who knows how long.

It is amazing how a little planning and maintenance can save you fuel, but try it, and you will see it really does work.
