How to Become a Hypermiler

Step 2Weight

Weight
Take everything out of your car.... Then put back only what you need.

For those more daring, remove your emergency jack and spare tire and be sure to carry a cell phone in case of emergency. AAA is a good thing to invest in - even if you don't plan on following these mileage techniques.

If you won't be carrying passengers, remove your rear seat and passenger seat as this will lighten your load by a couple hundred pounds.
