With gas prices slowly creeping back up, your New Jersey dealer wanted to get a jump on everybody else in reporting gas-saving tips. Right now, the prices are increasing ever so slightly and you may not have even noticed them. But chances are they will continue to go back up with the problems in the Middle East and other factors involved. Here are some tips from your New Jersey dealer to help you squeeze the most out of each gallon of fuel.
1. Accelerate smoothly. Few driving habits guzzle as much fuel as taking off quickly from a complete stop. While you’re at it, brake smoothly, too.
2. Maintain your vehicle. Keeping your car in tip-top shape will keep your car running efficiently. Check your owner’s manual for scheduled maintenance procedures for optimum performance.
3. Roll up your windows at high speeds. This probably isn’t much of an issue in the dead of winter, but open windows at speeds greater than 55 mph create a drag on your vehicle and reduce your fuel economy.
These are just a few tips from your New Jersey dealer to help you save money on gas. You can also visit your Berlin area Chevrolet dealer and get a new hybrid version of your favorite model for even more gas savings. Check one out today!
