Start the New Year With a Better Gas Mileage

2008 is just around the corner, and this is a great time to set a New Year’s resolution to spend less on your fuel bill!  One very easy way to do this is to use a proven gas additive such as the ones sold at FuelAdditiveStore.com.  The DurAlt line of fuel additives have been proven to increase gas mileage an average of 8-12%.  Just think how much that could save you over the next year!

Prices are expected to stay high through 2008.  Using a good gas additive is a very simple way to dampen the effects of this type of a market.  Who knows what the future holds for gas prices, but it is probably too soon to get very optimistic about the prices coming down anytime soon.

So here’s to a great new year, and a new resolution to save money on your fuel bill!

Christmas Sale

FuelAdditiveStore.com is running a Christmas sale until 12/26/07.  Right now everything on the site is 10% off (except for the 55 gallon drums).  Now is a great time to start using a proven gas additive and save money on your gasoline bill!

US News List of 50 Thrifty Cars for 2008

US News has published their list of 50 cars that will be on sale for the coming year, called the Thrifty Fifty (see the list here). This list shows several details about each of the cars, included the calculated gas mileage that the car will get. If you haven’t heard, the government has changed the way they measure gas mileage starting in 2008 to be more realistic.

Any of these cars could maintain a better gas mileage over time by using a good diesel additive or gas additive depending on the type of gas they use. So have a look at the list and this can help you make some good decisions on the next car you are going to buy.

Mileage Rate Deduction Increase

According to TractionReview.com the IRS is increasing the amount that businesses and individuals can write off for mileage on their car if the car is used for business.  They report that the standard rate in 2008 is going to be $0.505 per mile.  This is a $0.02 increase over the standard rate from 2007.

This is good news for business owners and individuals that use their car for business.  This should help dampen the effect that high gas prices has on these individuals.

Another great way to dampen this effect is to use a proven fuel additive or diesel fuel additive to increase the mileage you get out of each gallon you put in your tank.  Visit our website for more details or to purchase some fuel additive for your vehicle.

Things have shifted around since we last reported on gas prices before Thanksgiving. This just goes to prove how flexible the price of gas really seems to be these days!

With gas prices what they are (and you never know if they’re going to go up in the near future), we should all really be doing all we can to save money on gas. There are plenty of ways to save if you just take the time to do it. One is by using a good fuel additive. You can purchase proven fuel additives at FuelAdditiveStore.com.

Gas Prices Holding Steady Despite Fluctuating Oil Prices

There is a lot of talk online right now about why prices haven’t dropped even though the price of oil has gone down over the last couple of days.  This really just goes to show that gas prices don’t immediately follow the price of oil.  There always seems to be a time delay before the effects are felt by the general public.

So time will only tell if prices will go up and then back down, in other words fluctuate the same way that oil has been fluctuating.  The thing that I find interesting is that if the so-called “evil oil companies” were really behind it all, wouldn’t this be the perfect time for them to try to justify super high gas prices?  It just makes me feel more and more that they are not the ones behind it all.  They are just part of the market chain.  In fact, it could be that since prices haven’t been skyrocketing that they are doing their best to help all of us save money on gas, at the expense of their own profits.
