This helps because then your car doesn't have to overcome the force of static friction whose maximum is higher than kinetic friction, and if you can drive with as few stops as possible then you reduce the amount of probable "quick stops, quick starts" that waste lots of gas. Also if you can, drive where the speed limit is 55mph. This is about the ideal speed for vehicles to save gas. Lastly, http://www.aptera.com/ the Aptera is coming (first to California). It will get around 300 miles per gallon over 120 miles (about 1000mpg over 50 miles), and will initially only cost about as much as a Honda hybrid (~$30,000) which gets about 30mpg. Plus they expect the cost to go down over time. Another way to save money is to not completely stop at stop signs, or drive certain paths that you don’t stop at all.

I heard that somehow increases your miles per gallon slightly. I think making sure your car has oil changes when it needs them will help too. Very good article you've got here.
