Gas Consumption Tips
How do you get more out of your gas? Here are some more tips to save on your fuel bill:
1. Avoid Rush Hour. An idle engine in the middle of a bumper-to-bumper traffic consumes substantial amount of fuel. If you can (you actually should, hehe) go to your office earlier to avoid congested traffic. Scheduling your running errands chores during weekend mornings will be of great help in your fuel bill penny-pinching goal as there are fewer vehicles on the road.
2. Consolidate your trips. Also, make it a point to just go to a place wherein you can finish most if not all of the errands you have to run. This is one good stress-buster habit, too.
3. Don’t carry excess baggage. Unless you are a celebrity who brings most of his or her stuff in the car, there should not be enough reason for you to be burdening your car with too many things. Remember that the extra load your car carries means extra money that you have to shell out. Declutter for better mileage.
