Fuel saving Tips

Turn off that A/C.
Despite what studies may have you believe, running the air-conditioner is not better for fuel economy versus opening a window or sunroof. While the latter two do disrupt airflow, the loss of mileage is minimal in comparison to the A/C’s drain on the engine while running. But if you absolutely insist on running the A/C, park your truck in the shade as much as possible so that your engine won’t have to work as hard to cool the cab as well as your temper.
