Lelio's Tips And Tricks For Getting Better Gas Mileage!

Tip #1. Reduce air resistance.


At freeway speeds the majority of your engine's power is going towards moving air out of the way. As responsible, conserving drivers it is our communal duty to share this burden. All you have to do is make sure you follow the person in front of you as closely as possible. Hopefully the person behind you will be inspired by your economical driving and do the same. this will create a kind of "train" of cars all using the same airstream and everyone will benefit, granted, the car in front may benefit less than those in the middle but because drag also occurs behind a vehicle moving at speed they will benefit from your presence.





Tip #2. Every pound matters.


Weight is a large factor in your cars efficiency. Make sure you remove any unnecessary items from your vehicle no matter how light they may seem. Common unnecessary items include magazines, bottles of water, jacks, spare tires , carpeting , seats , steering wheels , etc.



This vehicle has been made extremely economical.

As for the driver themselves and any passengers the vehicle may transport. I recommend they maintain the lowest body weight that that particular individual can survive at.

You may want to remove any piercings or at least replace any heavier metals with aluminum or other lightweight metals/alloys

Also, clothing is completely unnecessary while driving




Tip #3.Maintain a constant speed


You may have noticed or heard that driving on city streets uses more gallons of gas per mile than does freeway driving. This is because of the constant need to slow down and then accelerate back to speed.

But studies have shown that the vast majority of drivers decrease their speed well below what their car needs to be at in any given turn. The less you decelerate before a turn the less you have to accelerate afterwards meaning your engine will have to do less work and use less fuel.



In japan gas is very expensive and must be conserved AT ALL COSTS.



Tip #4: The hood mounted grappling hook gun.


Why even run your engine when the person in front of you is already running theirs?
