This can save you gas for your lawnmower. Most of the time you don't have to run them on high speed unless your grass is thick.

Idle cars

Switch cars to save gas

A good tip to save money on gas if you have more than one car is to use the car that gets the most mileage on the longer trips, and the car that gets the lowest mileage on the shorter trips.

Pay cash for gas

You should pay cash for gas rather than using a credit card, otherwise you will owe interest if you don't pay the bill off quick enough.

I read that if tires are not inflated to the correct tire pressure, you will use more gas. If you drive over bumpy roads, your tire pressure gets knocked out over time even more.

Buy an electric car

Some hybrid cars are now out that get near 44 mpg. Hybrid cars use gas and electric. The prices of them are still a little high as of now. Maybe in time they will drop as more people buy them.

Combine trips to save gas

You can save money on gas if you combine all the places you have to go to in just one trip. Don't forget things and make another trip later. Try to buy things all in one store also. This saves gas and road trip time.
