So, here is another driving tip. Those of you who have ever gone on a road-trip with me probably already know this one- use your air conditioner sparingly!
The air conditioner puts an extra load on the engine and can actually increase your vehicle's fuel consumption by up to 20 percent! Instead, use your vehicle's flow-through ventilation at faster highway speeds (since open windows create drag and thus reducing aerodynamics of the car) or open a window for slower driving.
It's a good way to keep cool without contributing to global warming!
