AAA lists the following ways to save gas for when you're between fill-ups:

  • Avoid idling when possible;
  • Use cruise control when possible and maintain constant speed;
  • Avoid carrying more weight (the heavier your car is, the more gas you use);
  • Don’t brake or accelerate too quickly; and
  • Keep tires properly filled.
