5 easy ways to save fuel while driving. These are real driving techniques for better gas mileage. Sponsored by Progressive.
Most lists about how to save money on gas suck. They tell you to buy a different car, or remove all the weight from the back of your car. These solutions are either not realistic or painfully obvious. That's why I created this video, to offer driving techniques (which are free) that allow you to get better fuel economy in your own car, regardless of which car you drive. Often times, you don't even need to slow down, and some of these driving techniques are not only more efficient, but they'll get you to your destination faster as well.
We'll discuss how to approach stoplights and heavy traffic, how to handle hills, and whether it's better to accelerate lightly, or with moderate throttle while short-shifting. We'll also discuss how to properly incorporate engine braking into your driving, which uses no fuel at all, and can extend your brakes' longevity. Check out the video for all the details!
