Skip the carwash. By the time you leave a carwash, you may have spent nearly $20. Instead, wash your car by hand a few times each month.

driving

Don’t speed. Driving at high speeds decreases the fuel economy of your vehicle. You can assume that each 5 mph you drive over 50 mph is like paying an additional $0.13 per gallon for gas! Keep money in your pocket and stick to the speed limits.

 

insurance

Compare insurance costs. Good car insurance doesn’t have to be expensive. It’s important to shop around for the best policy that works for you, and take advantage of any discounts available. Click here to read our blog post for more ways you can lower your car insurance!
