Gas prices have continued to stay low in the days leading up to Labor Day.  This means that you shouldn’t have to worry about making as big of a dent in your wallet if you’re going to go on a big trip as you might have expected to at the beginning of the summer.  Current reports are showing that even California, which normally has much higher gas prices than the rest of the country, is only $0.03 above the national average.

One great way to keep your fuel costs low when you’re going on vacation is to take along a fuel saving gas additive.  By using a good fuel additive, you can further reduce the price that your trip will cost because of gas prices.

Here at FuelAdditiveStore.com, we hope that you all have a great and safe Labor Day!

People come up with all sorts of crazy gadgets to increase the gas mileage of their vehicles.  There have been some very strange inventions come on the market in recent years like magnets that change the gasoline’s molecular structure, devices that heat the gasoline before it goes into the engine, etc.  And not surprisingly, very few of these products actually do any good.

So when you are out there looking for a product that will help you save money on gas, make sure there is some good research to back it up.  Also look to see if the research was done by an independent third party, then you can know if the research was at all biased.  That’s one of the great things about DurAlt Fuel Additive.  It has been tested by companies like Ford, Total Fina, and many more that have all concluded that it does what it says it does: increase your gas mileage!

Yes, gas prices have been going down over the last few weeks, but soon enough they will probably start going up again - at least for a little while.  Every year the prices start to go up some time in April because the oil refineries have to switch their production over to the ’summer blend’ of gasoline.  In the coming weeks these same refineries will be making adjustments back to the ‘winter blend.’  Every time this happens, they have to stop production and this causes the supply of gas to decrease temporarily.  And what does that mean?  Higher prices for all of us!

You can soften the blow of this by consistently using a fuel saving gas additive.  Yes, the price will still go up and you will spend more on gas, but at least you will be getting a better gas mileage than people who are not using some type of gas additive.

Gas prices have apparently hit their lowest point since April of this year.  This is great news for consumers considering that we were all told that prices would probably be pushing $4.00 a gallon by the middle of the summer.  Just goes to show that the analysts are not always right!

Even with prices down to an average of $2.76 for regular unleaded, you can still greatly benefit from using a fuel additive to increase you gas mileage and boost your octane.   Low prices help, but why not get more out of your gas if you can?

Here’s another fuel saver tip that can help you to reduce your fuel bill. If you change some of your basic driving habits you can greatly increase your gas mileage. Here are two examples.

Do you constantly gun it when the light turns green? This is something that a lot of us do without even thinking about it. We’re in such a hurry to get through the intersection, but we burn extra gas to do it. Accelerating at a normal pace will burn less gas.

In the winter do you let the car run for 10 minutes to heat up, and in the summer do you let the car run with the AC on to cool down? Letting your car run in idle for that amount of time is a big fuel waster as well.

There are lots of other things that you can do to change your habits and decrease your fuel bill. Take some time and look at the things you do that are wasting money and see how you can change.

When it comes to decreasing your fuel consumption, there are several things that you can do. Here is a short list of some things you could start doing today that would decrease the amount of gas that you use on a weekly basis. Every little bit helps!

Use Car Pools or Public Transportation

If there is any way that you can work out a ride to work with a co-worker it’s a good thing. You can both drive on different days and quickly cut your fuel bill in half for the work week. Another option is the public transportation system. Depending on where you live, this may not be a viable option but it is still something to consider.

Keep Your Car Well Maintained

A well running car is a more efficient car. Make sure you take your car in for regular tune ups and oil changes to keep it running smoothly. You may also consider using some type of fuel additive to keep your engine running cleaner.

Keep Extra Trips to a Minimum

Plan out your errands before you leave so that you aren’t driving around needlessly. Extra trips to the grocery store, running to get a pizza, and other extra trips will add to your fuel bill.

Many of us have noticed that gas prices have been going down over the last few weeks. This is something that all of us can be happy about. Well, another thing to be happy about is that many analysts are predicting that in the coming years prices will continue to go down overall because of a decrease in the price of oil.

How low are they saying? Well, some analysts are apparently saying that it could go down to $20 a barrel in the next four to eight years. Imagine what that will do to the price of gas! If the price of oil goes down to $20 a barrel, the price of gas will quickly follow.

Granted, these are just predictions. But in a world where gas prices are as high as they are we could all use anything that will help us save money on gas!

If you’ve been looking at the gas mileage ratings for any of the new 2008 car models you may notice that the numbers are going down rather than going up.  Don’t worry, this is not because cars are getting less efficient!  It’s actually because the EPA is changing the way that it determines gas mileage, and these changes are a good thing.

Previously there have been a lot of complaints because the tests that have been performed to determine gas mileage are not representative of real driving conditions.  So in 2006 the EPA decided to revise the tests that they used to determine gas mileage, starting with the 2008 models.

The new changes are intended to make the estimates more realistic.  For example, the new test include driving the cars at higher freeway speeds, running with the AC on, etc.

As always, keep in mind that your real gas mileage is determined by a lot of different factors, not just what the EPA or the manufacturer says that you will get.  But at least now the numbers won’t be as inflated as they have been in years past.
