3) Gas Cards: You can save on gas prices because many gas cards offer a 10% to 15% discount. If a gallon of gas costs you $2.75, then that gas card could save you as much as 41 cents per gallon!

4) OD: Use your cars overdrive gear whenever you can. Lowering your rpm’s uses less fuel and will save money on gas.

5) Fast Freeway Driving: The D.O.E. (Department Of Energy) says that each 5 MPH you drive over 60 costs you 25 cents per gallon of gas.

6) Don't Idle: Save on gas prices by avoiding idling whenever possible because idling gets you a whopping ZERO miles per gallon of gas!

7) Gas Cap: You can save gas by making sure your car has a gas cap...and one that fits properly too! It sounds bizarre to me, but the D.O.E. says that 17% of the cars on the road don’t have gas caps. That’s 147 MILLION gallons of gas that is wasted each year through evaporation...and it pollutes too!
