Rising prices In an effort to help consumers con-sumers deal with skyrocketing skyrocket-ing gas prices, AAA Utah is offering advice to drivers to increase fuel efficiency and cut down on refueling costs. "One of the most important impor-tant things motorists can do is shop aggressively for the best deal," said Rolayne Fairclough, spokeswoman for AAA Utah. "Taking a few extra minutes to compare prices in your area will save you money." In addition to shopping for the best price, AAA offers five easy steps for cutting down on gasoline expenses. Gas is gas. Don't "treat" your car to higher priced premium fuel unless your car specifically requires it. Most of today's cars are designed to operate on regular, unleaded unlead-ed fuel. Check your tires. Improperly Improp-erly inflated tires are a safety hazard and can cut fuel economy. Inflate tires according ac-cording to the recommendation recommenda-tion in the owner's manual or as shown on a label attached to the driver's door pillar. De-junk the truck. Carrying Carry-ing around infrequently used materials like sports equipment equip-ment adds extra weight to your car and decreases fuel efficiency. Adjust your driving behavior. be-havior. Maintain a steady, speed, minimize breaking by anticipating traffic conditions and travel at moderate speeds. Take care of your car. Dirty air filters increase fuel consumption. Defective radiator thermostats or a stuck brake caliper are also common maintenance issues that can contribute to wasted fuel. Go often to the house of thy friend; for weeds soon choke up the unused path.
