With gas prices on the rise, everyone is looking for tips to get better gas mileage.
  Believe it or not, there is something you can do right now with any car or truck in order to increase your gas mileage.
Many people carry loads of unnecessary items in the trunk of their car or bed of their truck, primarily because they do not remember these things are there or are too lazy to remove them.
So, what you need to do is a little spring-cleaning and lighten your load.
  Only care what you absolutely need.
  It takes so much more fuel to get around when your car is weighed down.
  Why are you lugging them around town if you are just reducing your fuel economy? Leave all the extras at home.
You use an extra one-mile per gallon in gas for every 250 pounds your engine hauls.
  In turn, if you have pounds in your car of extra cargo, removing them from your vehicle could save you a mile of gas.
  If you multiple this over time for all your driving needs, you could save 20% of fuel in every trip.
As you can see, this will increase your gas mileage and stretch that buck just a little bit further just by lightening your load.
While dealing with the frustratingly high gas prices, it is a relief to know there is something you can do to increase your fuel economy.
  Better gas mileage is something all consumers seek with the price of gas soaring through the roof.
  Do this tip and watch your gas take you further on down the road.
