We all dread having to fill up our tank and watch money go down the drain, but we need our cars. What would we do without them? How did people survive without them? We\u2019ll never be able to understand.<\/p>\n

While we can\u2019t completely<\/em> avoid paying for gas, we can<\/em> use little tricks to save gas.<\/p>\n

01. Don\u2019t use the breaks so much.<\/strong>
\nWe need breaks but we don\u2019t need them that much when it comes to stopping. You can save gas by simply taking your foot off the break and \u201ccoasting\u201d, only using the break to come to a complete stop.
\n02. Close the window.<\/strong>
\nBy opening the window, the wind pushes back on your car and forces you to use more gas. We know it\u2019s nice to have the window down on a sunny day but it is more efficient.
\n03. Accelerate gradually.<\/strong>
\nLet your car catch up to the speed limit.
\n 04. Avoid long warm-ups in the morning.<\/strong>
\nI know you want your car to be warm but you can survive a couple minutes of shivering in order to save money.
\n05. Maintain the recommended tire pressure.<\/strong>
\nWhen you have low tire pressure, your tires are more likely to drag you down and, thus, you have to use more gas.<\/p>\n
