Car Tip } Vehicle Fuel Economy

Brought To You By Northcutt Value Auto Mart

-
Fuel prices have fluctuated so much over the past few years, and the concern of a vehicle’s fuel economy (MPG) seems to eb and flow just as much as those prices.  What kind of gas mileage a vehicle gets should always be of concern to the prudent driver.  Poor fuel economy just might be an indicator that something isn’t as it should be regarding your vehicle’s performance.  It can also be a sign of a heavy foot and a competitive spirit!
-
The government website http://fueleconomy.gov/ is a decent resource as a measuring board for how good or bad your vehicle’s fuel economy actually is.  The numbers represented in the government’s charts are the manufacturer’s “anticipated” fuel economy numbers WHEN THAT VEHICLE WAS NEW and should be a fairly close representation of what the driver could actually expect from that specific vehicle (according to specific engine size, vehicle weight, etc.).
-
When visiting the site, a driver can see some interesting facts regarding their vehicle.  One can obviously find the “rated” fuel economy of their vehicle, along with the capability of side by side comparisons of multiple vehicles.  Upon closer inspection, you can even discover fuel mileage results that are input from actual owners of the same vehicle, along with the region the drive in and their specific type of driving (city/highway).
-
If you find that your vehicle is producing sub-par performance in the fuel mileage arena, it just may be time for you to schedule a visit to your local mechanic for a tune-up.  And then again, it might be time to “calm” your driving habits, Ms. Leadfoot!
