Three Ways to Save Money While Driving

We all would like to find a little extra cash in our wallets every now and then. But did you know that the way you drive can actually help save you money?

The driving experience can be hacked to benefit your bank account, and by doing these three tips, it will also save you money. Here are three tips to optimize your gas mileage and help you spend less money at the pump.
  • No more junk in your trunk: Weighing down your car trunk with a set of golf clubs or an emergency water supply will take a toll on your fuel efficiency. Every extra 100 pounds is estimated to cut a vehicle's mileage by 2%.
  • You gotta keep 'em well inflated: Keeping your tires properly inflated can improve your gas mileage by 3% or more. So remember to schedule regular maintenance.
  • Buy premium and pay the price: Save money on gas by purchasing the grade that is recommended for your car — you won't benefit by spending more. You don't need premium gas to get better gas mileage.
If it's time to trade in your gas-guzzler, stop by our dealership and test drive a new Toyota today!
