5 Ways to Maximize Your Fuel Efficiency
Once you bring home the vehicle of your choice from our sales floor, you might be wondering how to maintain the fuel efficiency it initially had. Don’t worry, because Taylor Chrysler Jeep Dodge has prepared this page with five ways you can maximize your fuel efficiency. With gas prices often fluctuating, it might be beneficial for you and your wallet to follow these five simple suggestions we have prepared for you. If you have any questions, you can always contact our dealership.
Lighten the Load
The first and easiest way to make the most of every fuel trip is to lighten the load on your vehicle. This can be by unloading any unnecessary tools or belongings from the cargo bed or the trunk of your automobile. Have you been carrying along the same bag of clothes meant for the donation bin since last fall? Finally pay your local thrift store a visit or simply put it back in your garage until you have time to drop it off. These unnecessary weights strain your engine, causing you to have a heightened fuel usage than normal.
The Importance of Routine Maintenance
Ensure your engine is properly lubricated and taken care of by visiting our Service Department for routine maintenance. If your brake pads and rotors are used up, there might be extra strain on the unit when coming to a stop. This burden causes unnecessary force that consumes gas in an inefficient manner. Your engine should also have new oil every six months, or twice a year, along with a new oil filter every second oil change to ensure your motor is not circulating by-product from the combustion process. You can visit our location to perform any of these routine maintenance procedures when your schedule permits.
Other Driving Tips
When you’re traveling, use GPS and navigation applications that will provide you the most efficient route. The majority of these navigation systems now come equipped with different pathways you can take to get to your destination quickly and efficiently. When you do visit the pump, you should use the fuel grade that is recommended with the original fuel efficiency rating to get the most of every tank. If you’re using a lower grade, you might not be reaching it's maximum potential and using fuel inefficiently. Before you drive off, wait for your engine to properly heat up. This way, your functioning parts will move in a regular fashion and it will not be as strained. If you’re in need of genuine MOPAR parts or fluids, you should contact our Parts Department at Taylor Chrysler Jeep Dodge.
