Maximum gas-saving tip: A sunroof on your car may be a nice feature for a car, but it can also be a real drag. In the summer months, avoid the temptation to open the sunroof when driving at maximum speeds. It can lessen the aerodynamic flow of your car, causing drag and lowering your average miles per gallon.

Maximum gas-saving tip: Take the time to really go through your car and take out anything that isn't useful or is outright junk. Go through all the back pockets, the trunk, the glove compartment and anywhere else junk might pile up. The lighter your car, the more fuel-efficient it will be.

Maximum gas-saving tip: If you see a tanker truck at your local gas station filling up their reserves, keep driving right on by. Filling up your tank as the main reserve fills up can lead to an unknown mixture of gasoline and sediment that's being stirred up by the tanker truck. Dirt, debris and other unwanted material could end up in your gas tank.
