The ever increasing fuel prices always remain a big problem for
all kind of vehicle i.e. vans, cars, truck and other vehicles. Currently these
prices are on the record high level and touching new heights. Following are the
ten amazing tips for the drivers to reduce the fuel expense.
1.
Choosing the Right Grade of Gasoline
If you have van, car,
truck or any other vehicle see the manual and check which fuel grade is
recommended for your vehicle. Most of the vehicles work efficiently on regular
fuel so no need to go for premium, which costs more than 20%.
2.
Look for The Best Price Brands.
Although there is no
big difference in fuel prices but some brands of gasoline offers special discounts.
3.
Avoid Using Your Vehicle for Every Small Trip.
Another point for van,
car, truck and other vehicle owners to reduce their fuel expense is use public
transport for your small trips instead of your own vehicle because it costs you
around 30% more.
4.
Use Telecommunication.
By using
telecommunication facilities you can simply avoid many small trips which you
are doing now. Online enquiries on your computer or use your cell phone call
help line can save you to go there.
5.
Avoid Aggressive Driving.
Aggressive driving and
aggressively starting up the vehicle can also damage your fuel economy. Try to
remain in speed limits and drive your van, car truck or any other kind of
vehicle between 50 and 60 speeds. To remain in that speed limit can save around
25% of your fuel expenses.
6.
Reduce the Usage of Air conditioner and Heater.
Reduce the usage of
air conditioner and heater while you drive your van, car, truck or any other
kind of vehicle can save around 20% of your fuel expense.
7.
Remove Extra Wind Resistance and Weight Carriers.
Removing extra weight
carriers on the roof of your vehicle can cause wind resistance which increase
the fuel consumption. It is recommended that carry the load inside your vehicle
instead of outside or be ready for extra fuel consumption.
8.
Avoid Idling The Vehicle.
If you have to make
stop of one minute, turn of the engine of your van car truck or other vehicle
because all new vehicles are designed to warm up quickly therefore no need to
idle the vehicle.
9.
Periodic Maintenance.
Perform all periodic
maintenance on time. Replace all the required parts such as fuel and air
filters can save your fuel expenses around 20%.
10.
Choose Fuel Efficient Vehicles.
When you decide to
purchase your new van, car, truck or any other vehicle try to know about the
fuel efficiency of that vehicle. The top priority must be a fuel efficient
vehicle instead of any other thing.
Today as fuel prices
are touching new record highs everyday and there is very less chance of
reduction in those towering fuel prices, fuel efficiency becomes the need of
every vehicle driver. Above mentioned points will be really helpful for the
vehicle drivers in achieving the fuel efficiency to some extent.
