The open road has long symbolized freedom for Americans, even before Nat King Cole sang his homage to the legendary Route 66 back in 1946. Unfortunately, gas is considerably more expensive these days. Here are a few things you can do to save fuel and cut down on the cost of your daily commute.

Replace clogged air filters: Change your air filter every three months or every 3,000 miles to improve your gas mileage up to 10%.
Keep it shady: Park in the shade during the summer. You’ll reduce the amount of evaporative emissions your car will lose in
the hot sun and you’ll use less energy to cool it down.
