In fact, I didn’t get it off of CNN! While I’ve seen mention of these tips other places, they’re actually ones that I’ve found to be helpful from experience. So are you pretty good about it what with all of your driving up to LA? Ha

I dunno – that person may have read your post & just be lousy at math! KIDDING! My guess would be that the person read the post, but had a pre worked out gas price because this is something they post about with frequency/have a high interest in. I mean, he or she at least had to read to make sure that the junk in the trunk tip wasn’t already on there, don’t you think? Then again, I tend toward giving people the benefit of the doubt…

I’m bad about that junk in the trunk one though – I’ve had a wagon in my trunk since May. I’m not too bad about any of the others I don’t think. Except it would never occur to me to use cruise control unless I”m on a long trip. Then again in Houston there’s not many places where you could actually cruise because of all the traffic.

Where the heck do you live that gas is that high? Or is gas just low here because it’s Texas? Because I can get under $3.90 if I go to Citgo and use a cash card.

Oh good one. Although, I’m not sure if that message is canned and if you really read my post. Since 12 gallons * $4.50 = $54 rather than $45.

Here is another tip: ditch “junk in the trunk.” You can save up to 12 gallons of gasoline per year – almost $45 – by removing an extra 100 pounds of unneeded items from the trunk. You should also try checking out the Drive $marter Challenge http://www.drivesmarterchallenge.org You can enter your specific vehicle data and figure out how much money you can save my taking six fuel-efficiency steps.
