Fuel Saving Tip: Slow Down in Bushwood
Posted June 25, 2018 10:22 AMThere’s not much Bushwood drivers can do about the price of gas in Maryland, but we can control - up to a point - how much we use. Our driving habits can dramatically affect our fuel economy.
The first thing we can do is watch the go-pedal. Hard acceleration just sucks the gas. Gently leave stop lights and plan lane changes so you don’t need to floor it. That can save you hundreds of dollars a year in improved gas mileage.
Go a little slower on Maryland expressways. Bushwood drivers who go more than 65 miles an hour (105 kilometers per hour) will see their gas mileage drop dramatically. Leave early so you don’t need to rush to be on time. And cruise control is your friend – steady speeds use less gas.
Plan errands ahead. Make fewer trips by combining errands around Bushwood.
Hey at current Bushwood gas prices, a lead-foot might as well be a gold foot.
