Much of what we are told about ‘being fuel efficient’ and ‘increasing fuel efficiency’ is misinformation. In fact, much of what many professionals preach is actually detrimental to your overall fuel efficiency and is why almost nobody achieves their estimated miles per gallon. For example, we are often told that 1) slowing down is the best way to be efficient, or that 2) accelerating slowly is ideal, or that 3) going one speed (especially the speed limit) is most efficient, or that 4) accelerating is never in the best interest of efficiency. The fact of the matter is, is that some of those are only true on occasion. They definitely aren’t true all of the time or even a majority of the time. And some are rarely ever true at all. Yet it’s what we were taught. You want the truth? I’ll give you some insights here to back up my claims and to prove my expertise. …I do this to help you increase efficiency and safety and to also encourage you to get my latest Amazon Kindle book, ‘How To Get Better Than Your Estimated MPG/KPL: The 9 Elements of Mastering the Art of Efficiency That Prevent Millions of Accidents And Saves Lives, Daily!’, which has hundreds of insights that help you increase efficiency, situational awareness, skills and overall safety. 1) Most all unnecessary deceleration actually hurts your fuel efficiency. Not only that, it often creates traffic congestion and can initiate accidents. 2) Most people accelerate too slowly to be most efficient. There is an ideal speed at which to accelerate, which depends on your vehicle’s gear ratio, surroundings, skills and other factors. I call it ‘acceleration sweet spot’. 3) Maintaining one speed seems like it would be efficient, doesn’t it? It is more efficient than some of the other beliefs, but it can still be improved on. …There is an ideal speed at which to travel (I call it ‘traveling sweet spot’) and it changes depending on your vehicle, what gear you are in, the road you are on, the traffic around you and how well you read traffic ahead and use the gap in front of you. 4) In addition to your initial acceleration (from an intersection or turn, for example) there are also times when extra acceleration is absolutely in the best interest of efficiency. Not only that, it can be downright lifesaving! …There are literally thousands, if not millions, of accidents that are avoided every day BECAUSE someone chose to accelerate safely and timely. (Here’s where to go and get the book …and leave a review when ready.) https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B078YCGH8C/ But like I said, you won’t hear much of that anywhere else! Most people are too afraid of the implications of even mentioning the idea of accelerating. Not me! The reason why is because not only do I see and share the value of accelerating at proper times, I also don’t tell you or anyone ‘how to drive’. Not once in the entire book do I […]

Bookmark Bonus: “9 WAYS THAT EFFICIENT COMMUTERS ACT AND THINK DIFFERENTLY THAN THOSE ON AUTOPILOT!” >>> As you may have noticed, this fuel efficiency driver’s guide is about a lot more than just increasing your fuel economy (miles per gallon/kilometers per liter). It’s a book about increasing over driving skills and driver education. It’s about taking personal responsibility to a much higher level in order to significantly reduce the probability of creating traffic congestion or getting in an accident. As a matter of fact, many of the tips and techniques do prevent millions of accidents and save thousands of lives, every day! I’m positive that you’ve already used many of them to do just that. If you haven’t yet, do yourself and your family the favor of getting your Kindle e-book. (Physical copies will be available soon, at twice the price.)

‘How To Get Better Than Your Estimated MPG/KPL’ is a fully integrated drivers guide on how to master fuel efficiency and increase overall driving skills. It addresses 9 key elements that not only help you increase your fuel economy and overall miles per gallon/kilometers per liter but also dramatically increase awareness, safety and ‘reading traffic’ and communication skills. No matter what your current driver education is, if you appreciate safety, mastery, freedom or personal responsibility, you really do want to get, familiarize and share these profound insights. (…from the book, the newsletter, Facebook, Twitter and YouTube.) They truly are how society’s driving standards will evolve to one of less traffic congestion and fewer accidents and fatalities. Much detail went into making this manuscript compatible no matter what side of the road you drive on. As well as, not using limiting conclusive statements like ‘have to’, ‘best’, ‘only’ or ‘all’. Also, nowhere in this entire manuscript will you see me tell someone how to drive or what to do or not do!
