Six gas-saving myths

As seen on CNN:

#1 Fill your tank in the morning
#2 Change your air filter
#3 Use premium fuel
#4 Pump up your tires (Their point? Yes it helps, but not enough to offset the extra risk.)
#5 To A/C or not A/C (too little difference to matter so you might as well stay comfortable)
#6 Bolt-ons and pour-ins (such as this gadget)

The bottom line? There's no substitute for a proper maintenance and "gentle" driving to save gas.
