Did you know that you can save money in the way you drive? Here's some great tips that can help save both your car and your wallet...
- Limit your driving.
- Car pool when you can.
- Map your route...there's no reason to drive all over the city! Consolidate your errands.
- Stay up to date on your car's maintenance.
- Fill up the tank instead of making frequent trips for smaller gas bills.
- Avoid idling...park, and walk inside.
- Use a consistent speed and utilize your cruise control on long trips.
- Avoid stopping...if you see a red light ahead, slow down. It won't take as much gas to accelerate from a slower speed than to restart.
- When you do have to restart, increase your speed slowly.
- Avoid using the air conditioner.
- When shopping for a car, be realistic. Do you really need a SUV for just one or two people? Think fuel efficiency when you make a new car purchase.
- Wash / clean your car yourself.
