Default Re: NE 1 Reducing their gas consumption??? share your tips??

I work from home and am making a concerted effort to limit my trips to town (almost 30 miles round trip) I have been scoping out the two really small towns that are much closer to see what amenities they have that I can use. But I consolidate all my necessary trips to the big town into one or two per week.

DH drive a deisel truck and we will be able to write off some of his gas for our wood business this year.

I got much better gas mileage after a tune up and correctly pressurized my tires...(almost 50 miles a tank!!) plus I removed all the stuff so that Im not using gas to cart a bunch of excess weight around.
