Connie & Dick's Fuel Efficiency 101

Maintain your vehicle - proper servicing of your vehicle will help your vehicle perform up to its designed efficiency.
Check and maintain proper tire pressure. Have your wheel alignment checked and adjusted properly. Rolling resistance created by improper inflation and wheel alignment angles can put a heavy burden on on fuel efficiency.
Watch your freeway speeds. The aerodynamic drag increases exponentially as your speed increases above 65MPH. If your vehicle has an instant fuel economy feature, spend some time monitoring it. You can learn a lot about your vehicle's fuel efficiency this way.
When leaving a stop, don't punch it and don't drive aggressively!
Watch the traffic ahead so that you know when to lift and coast, this can save also.
Ask us for additional recommendations, like, what kind of fuel to run (regular or Premium)? Some vehicle calibrations will allow for more spark advance (more torque) = (better efficiency) with higher octane fuels.
