What are you doing to save fuel?
#1
I thought this would get some interest going. I'm combining runs to town, about 12 miles, with visits to my Mom's. I plan all my trips so I don't cover the same route twice in the same day. I keep my "junk" tuned and drive the speed limit. I'm getting somewhere around 16.5 in my B2. Keep tires properly inflated, no "jack rabbit" starts and no "kicking it" to get around some one!:wav:

Driving less and driving my wife's Honda when we do go places. The company truck is a huge bonus but I try not to take advantage of it too much.

Is anyone on the board one of those people who are bringing back the MOPED? I can't tell you how annoyed I am to see so many of them clog up our traffic on main roads since they can only go about 30!!!

I bought Honda Accord from one of my neighbors pretty cheap. It averages about 28-29 mpg. I could make almost 2 weeks on a tank of fuel versus about a week and a half in the Mustang at 22-23 mpg. But I have succumb to pear pressure and sold it to a buddy at work.
