Improved fuel economy not only benefits the environment by releasing fewer emissions but also saves drivers a lot of money. Drivers tend to blame their vehicles for poor mileage; however, a vehicle\u2019s fuel economy also depends on an individual&#8217;s driving style. If you want to improve the mileage of your vehicle, the easiest way is to modify your driving habits. With that in mind, our team at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kimbercreekford.com\/team-kimber-creek-ford-in-pine-river-mn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Kimber Creek Ford<\/a> in Pine River, MN, has some tips for you to get the best fuel economy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kimbercreekford.com\/new-cars-pine-river-mn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">View Our New Ford Inventory<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kimbercreekford.com\/contact-kimber-creek-ford-in-pine-river-mn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Contact Us<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2>Top 5 Techniques to Improve Your Fuel Economy\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul id=\"block-1617cf54-61d2-4670-9dfc-8ada30e82095\"><li>Rapid acceleration, braking, and speeding result in the wastage of gas. Such driving habits can affect fuel economy between 15% to 30%, depending on the vehicle. To avoid this, you can go easy on the gas pedal for a smoother ride and better mileage.&nbsp;<\/li><li>The fuel economy tends to decrease above 50 miles per hour. While every vehicle has its own optimal speed for good fuel efficiency, speeding can reduce mileage by 7% to 14%. Hence, the better option is to drive slowly.&nbsp;<\/li><li>When you operate a cold engine, it leads to reduced fuel economy. Therefore, you can start the engine and drive at a normal speed, allowing the&nbsp;car to cruise through&nbsp;smoothly without affecting your mileage.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Another tip would be to anticipate your road conditions beforehand. You can monitor the traffic ahead and time the stoplights to maintain momentum while avoiding unnecessary braking and acceleration.&nbsp;<\/li><li>If you know that you will be halting for more than a minute, the best thing to do is shut off your engine. A vehicle consumes more fuel when it is idle as compared to when it is restarted. &nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kimbercreekford.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/347\/2022\/03\/Fuel-Economy-B1_b.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kimbercreekford.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/347\/2022\/03\/Fuel-Economy-B1_b.jpg\" alt=\"drivers foot wearing flip flops on the car's pedal\" class=\"wp-image-3042\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/720\/2022\/03\/02094453\/Fuel-Economy-B1_b.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/720\/2022\/03\/02094453\/Fuel-Economy-B1_b-300x195.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kimbercreekford.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/347\/2022\/03\/Fuel-Economy-B_o.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kimbercreekford.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/347\/2022\/03\/Fuel-Economy-B_o.jpg\" alt=\"instrument cluster of the 2022 Ford Maverick\" class=\"wp-image-3039\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/720\/2022\/03\/02094452\/Fuel-Economy-B_o.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/720\/2022\/03\/02094452\/Fuel-Economy-B_o-300x195.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong><em>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kimbercreekford.com\/blog\/tips-to-know-when-to-change-your-tires\/#more-3021\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Tips to Know When to Change Your Tires<\/a>\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to improving your driving habits, you must also maintain your vehicle regularly.
