Gas is cheaper than it was but you can still save some dollars .
Remember that small savings add up.
Pump up your tires. Tires lose about a pound a month. As the temperature cools the air you put in shrinks. IF you drive with tires that are just 3 pounds underinflated, your vehicles fuel economy drops by 1 percent.
Clean your car. No, I'm not talking about polishing the outside to reduce wind resistance. But take a look at what you are hauling around in your car. Is there a bunch of stuff that belongs somewhere else and just never made it. If you're hauling around 100 extra pounds, for example you may be lowering your fuel efficiency by up to 2%.
Neither one of these will make your SUV into a Prius but they will put more money in your pocket.
