One of the easiest ways that we can reduce our annual gasoline spend is to start using a quality fuel reformulator, like Ethos FR each time we fill up. It has been clearly shown to increase fuel economy – which means you need fewer trips to the gas station.
There is an easy way to reduce your fuel costs by as much as 20% by getting your engine to run more effectively. You don’t have to be a mechanic, engineer or know anything about cars, trucks or generators. If you know how to put gas in your car, or diesel in your truck, then you can do it too.

For more information you may visit Anna’s blog, http://livingclean.com/hypermiling. Anna also has a Hypermiling E-Book available on her blog at http://livingclean.com/hypermiling/hypermilingebook.html.
Though the term “hypermiling” is a new word, the concepts it is based on are not new at all. We have just never had a specific name for it until now.
However, with gas prices reaching the extortion levels, people (out of necessity) have started to pay attention to how much fuel they are consuming.
And thus the word “hypermiling” has been born. The term “hypermiling” (originally coined by Wayne Gerdes) means, in simple terms, getting the best gas mileage out of the fuel you have.

Differences between domestic US trucks and international trucks and the reasons these differing standards causes a change in the fuel economy.
There are many differences between domestic US trucks and international trucks. One of them is that international truck mpg (miles per gallon) figures are rated much higher than their US counterparts for the same class and type of truck. This specific difference is due to many reasons.
These reasons are caused by many differences. One of them is that domestic trucks plying in the US are made by US-based automobile manufacturers. These manufacturers follow SAE (society of automotive engineers) standards, whereas trucks made in Europe follow European standards and trucks made in China and Japan follow their own standards.

Calculating gas mileage and car options to consider when looking for improved fuel consumption
Every car manufacturer is looking for new technologies that will allow it to make fuel-efficient cars. Vehicles that will offer significant better mileage and lower polluting emissions. This is how hybrid cars were born. Fuel costs have risen significantly and cars consume a lot of fuel especially when driving around town. Large engines eat up significant amounts of gasoline or diesel fuel and using hybrid technologies is intended to improve the cars mileage and reduce its emissions. There are several small and medium sized hybrid cars (Honda and Toyota are offering their Prius and Civic sedan hybrid) on the market today. However, although you can buy a small hybrid car, until recently you were unable to buy a car hybrid SUV. Large 4×4 SUVs are heavier, need larger and more powerful engines to accelerate them to highway cruising speeds and people buying them were not particularly interested in fuel economy. However, the market has changed and while the demand for large SUVs is on the rise, so is the demand for more economical 4x4s.

Have you seen the price of automobile fuel? When I started driving, I could buy three gallons of gasoline and some candy with one dollar.
Folks are asking me what they can do to minimize the cost of driving. I tell them it is all in their hands and feet.The greatest impact that they can have is to change the way they drive.
Fuel efficiency is more about the driver than it is about the car.
Accelerating hard, weaving erratically, or grinding to a halt all waste fuel.
WE THROW FUEL AWAY WHEN WE:
• Accelerate fast
• Turn on the air conditioning
• Leave heavy stuff in the trunk
