Nelson Marysville, a Columbus, Ohio, Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep dealer, has some tips on their website on how to save money by using less gasoline. With the price of gas so high these days, every little increase to your miles-per-gallon can really add up.
One major factor listed, which encompasses a number of individual items that your mechanic can address, is keeping your engine tuned. A major issue like an oxygen sensor not working properly can really hit your MPG, and fixing could increase your mileage by 40%.
Air filters are another contributer, replacing a very clogged filter can increase the miles you get out of a tank of gas by 10%. While ensuring your tire has adequate pressure can increase your fuel-efficiency by about 3%.
Use these recommendations on your car and you'll be spending less money at the pump. Special thanks to Nelson Marysville, the Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep dealership serving the Columbus, OH, region.
General Motors is providing the government of Dubai with some hybrid vehicles (the Chevrolet Malibu and Tahoe) for their "Transport Authority".
Sounds warm and fuzzy, but is Dubai snickering and tugging on their moustache for the plan to reduce the amount of gasoline they use...which increases the amount they sell? Makes sense, right?
The press release:
General Motors and Government of Dubai to Bring Hybrids to the Middle East
Dubai, UAE - General Motors and Dubai Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) announced today an agreement for an evaluation program that will bring hybrid vehicles to the Middle East. The agreement, which includes a comprehensive local market evaluation of GM's all-new Chevrolet Tahoe Two-Mode Hybrid and the all-new Chevrolet Malibu Hybrid, could eventually lead to one of the largest fleets of hybrid vehicles in the world.
The accord is groundbreaking because it demonstrates the common goal of General Motors, Dubai RTA and the Government of Dubai to reduce their impact on the environment - even in a region that is rich in oil-resources.
The agreement was signed by His Excellency Matar Al Tayer, Chairman of the Board & Executive Director of the RTA and Terry Johnsson, President of General Motors Middle East Operations, in the presence of Engineer Essa Al-Dosary, CEO Public Transportation Agency, Engineer Abdul Aziz Malik, CEO Dubai Taxi, and a number of department directors and officials from RTA and General Motors.
Maureen Kempston Darkes, GM Group Vice President and President of GM Latin America, Africa and the Middle East said, "We are honored that Dubai RTA selected the all-new Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid and Malibu Hybrid for this program. This is further evidence that our environmental strategy goes to markets all around the world - and is truly a global effort to reduce emissions and develop sustainable transportation. These advanced technology vehicles are leaders in their automotive segments and selecting them is testimony to the visionary leadership of the Government of Dubai.
His Excellency Matar Al Tayer said that this initiative comes in implementation of the directives of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, UAE Vice President and Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai to seek a safe, clean and attractive and sustainable environment that lives up to the reputation and prestige of the Emirate. It also comes in the framework of RTA's commitment to protect life and property, preserve the environment and natural resources, improve standards of occupational health and public safety, and implement all the necessary technologies to reduce noise levels caused by means of transportation.
The GM-RTA agreement calls for the provision of a small fleet of Chevrolet Tahoe and Malibu hybrids that will be used as limousines and taxis by RTA on the roads in Dubai. The program will last one year, beginning in January 2008. General Motors will provide technical training on safety and other aspects for 15 RTA technicians, along with training for 40 drivers of Dubai Taxi. During the program, GM and the RTA will work together to validate the vehicles for use and serviceability. The intent is for the Dubai RTA to consider the Chevrolet hybrids for its fleet plans scheduled for early 2009.
The price of crude oil has gone down a bit over the past couple of days, but it continues to go up at the pump ($3.15 here). Why is it that when the cost of crude oil goes up, gasoline at the pump rises immediately; but when the cost of crude oil goes down, however, it can take weeks for the pumps to show a decline?
We know the answer, of course. Profits. Milk as much as you can from the consumers before reducing the price. Raise it as soon as you can to get more.

Check out Jalopnik's shots of the Vector WX-8. Not all the buzz over there is positive, but I like it. And since this is my blog, I'll link to it with happy thoughts. Yes, I'd prefer the Lamborghini LM002 parked nearby, but this machine will do.
