Make it a Habit to Drive for better MPG
By far, the best recommendation to reduce your fuel consumption is to NOT drive your car. Opt to walk or bike when you can.

Avoiding bad driving habits like accelerating too quickly or late braking and using your cruise control more frequently can all improve MPG.
