One study showed that cruising @55mph on the freeway rather than 70mph can save a ton of fuel. I will have to look that up again

just laying off breaks in general and letting your vehicle coast to a near stop or slow down is best... Inflated tires is a big saver too.. Or you can just modify your car to run on water lol

Hi, I try to use good wheels. It means good tyre and light rims. it helps me feel better driving and save a fuel also
That's true! It will help a lot if you have a good tire and light rims because you can drive in a safest way and you can save fuel as well. Another thing is that you should always use your car if you will go to near places just try to walk inorder to save fuel and to exercise your body and mind .

Another tip is to check your tire pressure. Under-inflated tires have more rolling resistance, which means you need to burn more gas to keep your car moving. I heard you should check your tires at least once a month.
You should also get rid of unnecessary stuff in your car. I periodically go through my car and see what can be tossed out or brought into the house.

If you're the type who takes a leisurely attitude towards car cleanliness -- and I definitely fall into that category -- periodically go through your car and see what can be tossed out or brought into the house. It doesn't take much to acquire an extra 40 or 50 lbs. of stuff, and the more weight your car has to lug around, the more fuel it burns.

To economize my budget on fuel, I am using the following fuel saving tips:
One of the best ways to save gas is to simply reduce your speed. As speed increases, fuel economy decreases exponentially.
Check my air filter regularly.
Accelerate with care.
Check your tire pressure
In all of these ways, I find the most effective one is acceleration with care. Jack-rabbit starts are an obvious fuel-waster -- but that doesn't mean you should crawl away from every light. If you drive an automatic, accelerate moderately so the transmission can shift up into the higher gears. Stick-shifters should shift early to keep the revs down, but don't lug the engine -- downshift if you need to accelerate. Keep an eye well down the road for potential slowdowns. If you accelerate to speed then have to brake right away, that's wasted fuel.

Whether you drive a two-seat hybrid or a three-ton SUV, chances are you can squeeze a bit more distance out of each gallon of fuel -- and at today's gas prices, an improvement of just one or two miles per gallon (MPG) can really add up. These ten fuel saving tips have served me well over the years, and they can help you improve your car's fuel economy and take some of the sting out of high fuel prices.
