More ways to save real money on gasoline....

O.K. I thought of more than 10 fuel saving tips.

Some of these may seem like common sense, but that's what I'm talkin' about - and besides, sometimes we forget!

11. Use cruise control if you car is equipped with it. It keeps your speed constant.
12. Let the kids ride the school bus insead of driving them to and from school. ha ha! Besides, they'll make friends there, and get more sunshine.
13. Never let you car run while you dash into the store, post office, etc. This seems obvious for so many reasons, but people still do it. Of course, remove babies and small pets from your car because it could get hot - you should do that anyway.
14. Use your air conditioner instead of opening the windows while driving at high speeds. This used to surprise me, but I read it again and again. It's actually more efficent to use the AC than to creat that drag with open windows at high speed. It's more comfortable for those poor people in the back seat too!
