Here are some of my tips:
1. Carpool, if you can
2. Keep your tires inflated properly
3. Drive smart: Do not make sudden stops or start your engine fast. Gradual acceleration and decelaration makes your engine run better and consume less fuel and save money. Watch your speed. Driving at 60 mph rather than 80 mph will save you money by improving your fuel economy.
4. Consolidate your trips.
5. Gas evaporates easily especially in summer time, so do not forget to tightly close the gas cap. Do not use air conditioning unless it is needed. Use of AC can lower your fuel economy by 10 percent.
