26. Tire maintenance

Not only should you be maintaining the engine of your car, you should also be paying attention to the tires that you are driving on.

• Purchase a tire gauge and check your car’s tire pressure every month. When you are driving around on tires that are under-inflated you can reduce the fuel efficiency of your car by up to 2 percent for each pound that the tires are under-inflated.
• Under-inflated tires wear out faster, which again contributes to higher gas consumption.
• Not only will you save on gas consumption when you maintain your tires, studies show that you will also save money on the maintenance of your vehicle by up to $250 each year.
• The best time to check your tire pressure is when it’s cool outside or in the morning after your car has been sitting for several hours without driving.
• Use appropriate tires for each season. When you put away your winter tires in the warm weather you’ll be able to use them for at least two years.

27. Keep a clean outer car

You can reduce the amount of drag on your car when you keep the exterior clean and waxed. This will add some gas savings into your pocket.

It may seem like a small thing to do, and you most likely won’t notice any difference at all in your fuel consumption, but keep in mind that every little bit helps when it comes to reducing your gas costs and saving at the gas pumps when you fill your car.

Many times when you purchase your gas at a gas station that has a car wash you can receive money off coupons to use when you wash your car.

This is a great way to save money while keeping your car clean.



28. Service your vehicle before the winter

As the colder weather approaches you will want to make sure that your vehicle is in the best condition that it can be to deal with the colder weather.

If you car needs servicing and you decide to wait until the spring weather you will find that your fuel consumption goes up dramatically. Keep in mind that you may be putting snow tires on your car, further adding to the decrease in fuel economy that you many experience during the months of winter.

If you are traveling greater distances during the winter months you may have to travel over roads that are experiencing winter conditions. Plan your trip accordingly by trying to travel when the roads are clear and there is no forecast of snow.

 

29. Remove snow tires

When it isn’t winter and there is no snow on the ground you should replace your winter tires with summer tires or all season radials.

Big snow tires with deep treads use more gasoline than lighter tires. Many times people leave their snow tires on all year round so that they can avoid the hassle of taking their car to the mechanic.

The amount of savings that you can get out of changing your tires each season should inspire to make that appointment with your mechanic rather than weigh your car down all through the year, even when there is no evidence of snow. Store your winter tires in a place where they are free from moisture and dry heat.

The better care you take of your winter tires the longer you can keep them, reducing the amount of money that you spend maintaining your tires and your car.

The same applies when you put your winter tires on your car and store your summer tires or all season radials. You will want to make sure that they are store correctly and are tightly covered.

Many people overlook the important of maintaining tires when it comes to saving at the gas pumps.

To maximize the most savings that you can achieve at the gas pumps you need to pay attention to all the details of maintaining and driving your vehicle.

 

30. Avoid rough roads

Driving on rough roads, such as those made of gravel or dirt, will reduce your fuel consumption by as much as 30 percent.

If there is an alternative route that you can take you should consider taking it if it isn’t going to add too many miles onto your trip.

On a side note, if you are planning a camping trip and are driving a new model car or truck you may want to think about leaving your car at home and finding alternative travel arrangements.

The wear and tear to a vehicle that is being driven over rough gravel road can damage the underside of your vehicle, causing damage that you’re not aware of for some time to come.

This damage, even if minimal, could be a factor towards increasing your gas costs and fuel inefficiency.
