yes, ANOTHER gasoline post... but i think you might find this interesting

last week/early this week i posted that driving the speed limit on a weekend trip i needed to make saved me 1/8 of a tank of gas.

well, with money being tight, i budgeted fill-ups on friday. i wasn't going to have money to fill-up until today, so i had to make it last.

granted, i didn't work on monday.

here is the outcome.

usually, a tank of gas will BARELY make a week... sometimes six days. so i had to make 5/8 of a tank last 4 work days.

i drove at or slightly below (by 1mph) the speed limit and used my cruise control.

AND...

it's friday morning and i made it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the light did come on just before i pulled into the gas station where i get the best price around here.

it's amazing how far that gas went!

seems like i'll be driving like a grandma for quite some time.

thanks for reading

Good tip. Although if I start using this tip, I'd have to drive allllll the way in the right lane and leave about 20 minutes earlier..........
