The folks over at Eartheasy have done some great work pulling together not 7, not 12, but 17 tips to help you cut your gas costs by up to 30% with simple driving style changes, maintenance and more.

I’ve been paying attention of late to the fuel economy of my own car with the shady suspicion that it hasn’t been reaching the posted 38 miles per gallon or 7.5 Litres/100 Km. It is hard to tell since I drive less than thrice weekly. In any case, this dandy tip list will help me troubleshoot, and ideally reach or exceed my car’s posted fuel efficiency ratings.

In the meantime, my current approach to saving money on gas also works on melting off that lingering winter muffin top: I bike where I reasonably can bike, blade where there’s a safe strip of pavement, and walk for the love of my dogs and for the scent of June’s lilacs.
