A Tip for Saving Gas: Reduce Weight



Weight is an enemy of fuel economy. If you drive a minivan and don't regularly carry 6-7 people, consider removing those unused seats to reduce weight. The same applies for many SUVs with third-row seats. By removing the center row in our van, we get an extra 10+ miles from each tank.


Also, if your car looks like a college dorm, remove some of the stuff you don't need! Not only will it save you gas, but it may also improve the driving characteristics of your car.
