Used cars can save you money...
Used cars can save money:
Consumer Reports
Yonkers, New York - A new study by Consumer Reports has found that choosing a reliable three-year-old car instead of a new one can save drivers thousands of dollars over the first five years and, in many cases, is enough to pay for all the gas used during that time.
On average, the findings show that consumers can save 32 per cent in the first five years by buying a three-year-old car, while a one- or two-year-old vehicle will save 19 and 27 per cent respectively.
According to the analysis, a 2005 Toyota Camry with V6 engine could save about $13,000 (all prices U.S.) over five years, compared with buying a new 2008 version. At $4.00 per gallon, the driver could pay for almost all gas during that period, based on driving 12,000 miles (19,312 km) per year and still be almost $2,500 ahead. Similarly, a 2005 Ford Focus can save more than $8,000 over the first five years over a new Focus; with used-car values dropping on large SUVs, a three-year-old Chevrolet Tahoe could save $25,500 over five years when compared to a new one.
Factors include deprecation, insurance, interest, maintenance and repairs, and sales tax. “A reliable late-model used car can be one of the best values out there when buying a car,” said Rik Paul, automotive editor. “Savvy shoppers can also get a more upscale model with more features for the same owner cost as a less-expensive car.”

7 Tips to Improve Gas Mileage...
1. Drive Sensibly - Aggressive driving (speeding, rapid acceleration and braking) wastes gas. It can lower your gas mileage by 33 percent at highway speeds and by 5 percent around town. Sensible driving is also safer for you and others, so you may save more than gas money.
2. Observe the Speed Limit - While each vehicle reaches its optimal fuel economy at a different speed (or range of speeds), gas mileage usually decreases rapidly at speeds above 60 mph.
You can assume that each 5 mph you drive over 60 mph is like paying an additional $0.26 per gallon for gas. Observing the speed limit is also safer.
3. Remove Excess Weight - Avoid keeping unnecessary items in your vehicle, especially heavy ones. An extra 100 pounds in your vehicle could reduce your MPG by up to 2%. The reduction is based on the percentage of extra weight relative to the vehicle's weight and affects smaller vehicles more than larger ones.
4. Avoid Excessive Idling - Idling gets 0 miles per gallon. Cars with larger engines typically waste more gas at idle than do cars with smaller engines.
5. Use Cruise Control - Using cruise control on the highway helps you maintain a constant speed and, in most cases, will save gas.
6. Use Overdrive Gears - When you use overdrive gearing, your car's engine speed goes down. This saves gas and reduces engine wear.
