'The Hack to Driving Down Car Expenses' by nowsourcing gas gasprice

One of the easiest places to spot inflation in America today is at the gas pump. In March of 2022, gas prices averaged $4.29, rising nearly 40% over the past 2 years.

Avoid idling behaviors where possible by skipping the drive thru. Lastly, don’t speed. Beyond 50 mph, every 5 mph speed increase increases fuel consumption up to 14%.

Another solution is to cut unnecessary trips out of your routine. 43% of Americans are already driving less to save on gas. Limiting how much you drive by 10% can save you $275 a year in gas and insurance costs.
