TIPS TO HELP YOU SURVIVE THE DRIVE

The best way to improve your car efficiency? Try these tips from "Survive the Drive" author David Rizzo:

Turn off the air conditioner.

Idling longer than 60 seconds? Shut off the engine.

Is your trunk a storage unit? Lighten the load, since 1 percent of fuel efficiency is lost for every 50 pounds of extra weight.

Keep tires fully inflated to manufacturer's specifications for a 3 percent gas savings.
