the smart driver is the best tool that aids in fuel economy.


and i can sum up how in two words; maintain momentum.

this means timing lights, coasting to a stop, letting the car roll faster on dowhills, accelerating downhill if there is an up hill after it, letting it slow down on long up hills, getting to cruising speed as quickly as possible, staying in top gear as long as possible and so on.

conversely, there are other things you can do, like increasing your air pressure, getting a tuneup, keeping your windows and sunroof closed, using your AC minimally, removing all the unecessary detritus from your trunk, combining trips, avoiding traffic (i used to go to the gym near work, then go to work to avoid being in traffic if i left later!) and so on.
