One of the best ways to improve a vehicle's fuel economy is to reduce the aerodynamic drag. The easier the car is to push through the air, the less gas you have to use. There are several design elements that can be altered to help the aerodynamic profile of a vehicle. Smoothing out the underbelly to create less turbulence is one. A cam back design, where the backend drops off steeply, is another design element being developed for vehicles like the electronically driven Chevrolet Volt.
There are also ways to improve your own car's aerodynamics. Keeping bike, ski or luggage racks off the roof when you're not using them can greatly increase your car's fuel efficiency. And secondly, keeping your car clean and waxed will make it slippery as you drive down the road.

It seems like everyone is digging deep into their pockets these days. But, did you know that by cutting corners and making little sacrifices along the way, you can find an extra $1,500 to $2,500 a month? If you don’t put a lot of miles on your car, check with your insurance provider about a discount – some companies will decrease their premiums if you drive fewer miles.
Try going on a “restaurant diet” and limit the number of times per week you eat out. This can save you anywhere from $300 to $500 a month. Entertain at home vs. “in town” and save another $200 to $300. You can always "do it yourself," too! Cut your own lawn, clean your own gutters/windows and your own home and you’ll have $200 to $400 more to spend on the necessities.
