Don't you just sometimes want to slap the person who brags to you about how he just drove 300km and only used up a quarter of his fuel tank? And here you are waiting a petrol kiosk to refuel after driving just 200km....
So here are some simple tips to make you car go the distance:
1. At highway speeds, do you know that the wind outside is quite cool and refreshing. And did you know that by running the ac, you car consumes more power, hence more fuel is needed to push the car forward. Try this, turn off the ac and turn on the ventilators. Cool fresh air into your cabin and you'll be saving fuel! Of course don't forget to turn off the ventilators when you're following a diesel engine truck puffing fumes!
2. Stick to the speed limit. Cause chances are if you're flying down the highway faster than everyone else, you're going to be stuck behind a lot of cars and revving down and changing gear is just going to burn up more fuel. Stay in good limited speed and in high gear. Cruise along the way...
3. Turn off all unnecessary power equipment. So enhance the power moving to your drive train and not else where...
Try these 3 simple steps and you too can be one of those people bragging about how economic your car is!
