GAS SAVING TIP: Skip the premium. Save money and skip premium gas unless it is “required.” This is indicated on the fuel filler door. Many cars list “recommended,” which means it is optional. If there is only midgrade or premium fuel available, this will work fine in a car that is rated for regular gasoline.

Gas Saving Tip: Eliminate Excess Weight
One simple yet effective way of how to save gas is by removing excess weight from your vehicle. Avoid keeping unnecessary items in your car, especially heavy ones. While it might seem like a small thing, just an extra 100 pounds could reduce your miles per gallon (MPG) by up to 2 percent. Over time, this can add up, making it an easy and free way to boost your fuel efficiency and get more miles out of every gallon.

GAS SAVING TIP: Anticipate traffic and coast
Pay attention to the road ahead. If you see a red light or a stop sign in the distance, take your foot off the gas early and let the vehicle coast. Racing to a red light only to slam on the brakes forces your engine to work harder for no reason.

Smooth deceleration conserves the momentum you have already built.

FAll Driving Tip: Lights
This time of year finds most of us driving around more in the dark, so this makes a great time to check your headlights, brake lights, turn signals, emergency flashers and interior lights. Be sure to also check your trailer brake lights and turn signals, if necessary.
