Keep a safe distance behind other vehicles.
- Select a gear range suitable to road conditions.
- Avoid unnecessary engine idling.
- Keep your engine tuned up.
- Follow the recommended periodic maintenance schedule.

- When cruising at highway speeds, it is more economical to use the air conditioner and leave the windows closed to reduce drag.
