The best way to save gas is to simply drive less.

I know that this might sound like a foreign concept, but if we cut back on our consumption of oil in this country, the prices for everything else will inflate slower and we will all save money in the long run.

This is because everything that we use is either made of plastic, or has to be delivered by truck to the stores. Our increasing demand for crude oil and its derivatives, like gasoline, puts upward pressure on on the prices of all the goods sold in America.

The sad fact is that when there is not enough of something to go around, the price of that item will rise for everyone. If we don't start to limit our consumption of gas, the price will sooner than later approach $5.00 a gallon. So the choice is clear. The less you drive your car, the lower the price of gas will stay.
