Living the life of a Hypermiler is not rocket science - more than likely you already have all the tools you need.

Hypermilers live by several simple but important tips to stay green and save green (and no, you don't have to have a fancy hybrid vehicle. You can save starting today using the vehicle you already own.


1. Keep your tires properly inflated.
Tires can lose pressure even without a leak from something as simple as changes in the weather. Your car's proper tire pressures are likely listed on the entrance frame of your driver's door. Keeping your tires properly inflated can save up to 5 cents on every single dollar spent on fuel.

2. Avoid rapid starts.
Horsepower is fun to have, but can be quite expensive to enjoy. It is possible to save up to 20 cents on the dollar by slowly accelerating from each stop as opposed to a quick jack-rabbit start.

3. Let your car's momentum be your friend.
Most of us would be well surprised how far our car could travel if we were up to speed and simply took our foot off the gas pedal. When your car is moving but your not pressing the gas, you are saving gas by leaps and bounds. Certainly use momentum safely, but capturing your car's rolling momentum is perhaps our best tip to save.
